Gnome2 build question

[Vladimir Belyashki]

Greetings and thanks for the great job you're doing!

I have a simple question regarding a Gnome2 build.
Is it possible at all to build Gnome2 on a fresh
install of FreeBSD CURRENT? After deprecating the 
accessibility category in the ports tree many 
components ot the Gnome2 desktop environment fail 
to build complaining about missing atk, gail and 
at-spi. The only workaround I've found so far is 
using parts of the ports collection coming with FreeBSD 
5.2-RELEASE, where the mentioned above ports are 
still present. But then they show as orphaned packets 
in the installed software list. I've searched at 
http://www.freshports.org/ for any solution or more 
info but the only thing I found there was deletion 
confirmations. Can you please suggest any way out 
of this situation? This is not the first time I mail 
a maintainer about port issues and all of you have 
always been very helpful and responsive. Couple of 
times those issues were well known so I was wondering 
is there a FreeBSD ports mailinglist I should subscribe 
to and save us false alerts in the future? Many thanks 
again and keep up the superb work :).
