Fink is proud to announce the availability of GNOME 2.4 in the unstable trees for Mac OS X 10.3
This major step brings a major update to the GNOME Desktop Suite and its associated programs.


The GNOME 2.4 Desktop is the latest release of the popular, multi-platform free desktop environment.

GNOME 2.4 expands the offerings of the popular free software desktop, with a new web browser based on the most standards-compliant rendering engine available, improved accessibility tools, a number of new applications to make day-to-day desktop use easier and a continued commitment to creating a computing environment that "just works".

GNOME 2.4 includes 11 new applications and more than 100 user-requested enhancements.

GNOME runs on a variety of platforms, including GNU/Linux (commonly called Linux), Solaris, HP-UX, BSD and Apple's Darwin.

GNOME tries to avoid unnecessary complications or obscure features, sticking instead to a clear, unified vision of a usable, powerful desktop.

a) Based on gtk+2
b) Greatly improved Nautilus
c) New blackjack game.

For a detailed list of all the new features and changes see:

 the maintainer.
