  27 Mar 2010; Pacho Ramos <pacho@gentoo.org> gtk+extra-2.1.2.ebuild:
  As Samuli noticed again in bug 311611, LICENSE should be FDL-1.1 also

  27 Mar 2010; Pacho Ramos <pacho@gentoo.org>
  -files/gtk+extra-2.1.1-fix-row-deletion-segfault.patch,
  -files/gtk+extra-2.1.1-glib2.10-full-fix.patch,
  -files/gtk+extra-2.1.1-glib2.10.patch, gtk+extra-2.1.2.ebuild:
  Install documentation in proper place (bug 311599), don't install useless
  INSTALL file (bug 311601), drop no longer used patches (bug 311605), use
  SLOT deps for gtk+ and glib (bug 311607), stop inheritting no longer used
  eutils.eclass (bug 311609), switch license from GPL-2 to LGPL-2. Thanks a
  lot to Samuli Suominen for noticing all the problems.
