When trying to run gensync on a FreeBSD system to update my gnome 2.7 repository today, I found out gensync is sourcing the PKGBUILDs or something like that in the process. In most gnome PKGBUILDs, there's a sourceline for /etc/profile.d/gnome.sh on top, which breaks gensync if it's not installed on the system running gensync.

Please take care of this when the next release of gnome is coming up.
This task depends upon

This bugreport seems to cause some confusion, it's not that the source lines should be left completely out, but that the sourcelines should be placed in the build() function, just like the way that's done for Liferea.

this is fixed in the gnome 2.8 release in testing.
