Going to be a long two days.

Let's add two more! These are needed for the new iconsets.

Here's a status update:

• So far, the following packages need to be added:
• tracker-miners
• -POSSIBLE- libgxps (for tracker-miners, allows XPS support in Evince and ImageMagick)
• gsound
• pipewire
• rtkit (for pipewire)

• Caribou will most likely be archived, if gnome-shell functions without it. There has been no upstream activity, and upstream is talking about archiving the git repository in the next release. It also has serious problems with Python3.

• If no upstream updates are available for gnome-nettool, it will likely be archived. Half of the commands called by it have changed options.

• Icons (adwaita, gnome-themes-standard, gnome-icon-theme-*) version entities will be moved out of gnome.net into packages.ent, to be consistent with the organization of the book.

• gnome-maps and gnome-weather will become available to SysV systems.

• The order for GNOME in systemd may be shifted slightly.

• Old gnome-minor-* entities in gnome.ent will be removed if not used anymore.

So far, gnome-online-accounts, gnome-keyring, gcr, gnome-video-effects, and several of the others will not get 3.32 releases unless an urgent problem is developed. GConf is only here for legacy applications and is unmaintained upstream, with official recommendations stating that a move to DConf needs to be done.

Finally get this to work... I spend a lot of time because I didn't have /etc/lfs-release so gdm refused to run.

I'm using g-o-a 3.31.90 and gnome-keyring-3.31.91 since their 3.32 version is not released yet.

I wonder what the holdup is on gnome-online-accounts and gnome-keyring. I suppose I could use their 3.30 version (We've got a policy about not putting pre-release stuff in), but that feels like a hack to me.

In this case, because it affects the gnome platform, go ahead with the development versions and jsut update them in place when the -32 versions are released.

Updated gnome-backgrounds, dconf, dconf-editor, tracker, evolution-data-server, libgtop, and libgweather
