FUNCTIONS

gnome2_environment_reset: Reset various variables inherited from root's environment to a reasonable default for ebuilds to help avoid access violations and test failures.
gnome2_gconf_savelist: Find the GConf schemas that are about to be installed and save their location in the GNOME2_ECLASS_SCHEMAS environment variable. This function should be called from pkg_preinst.
gnome2_gconf_install: Applies any schema files installed by the current ebuild to Gconf's database using gconftool-2. This function should be called from pkg_postinst.
gnome2_gconf_uninstall: Removes schema files previously installed by the current ebuild from Gconf's database.
gnome2_omf_fix: Workaround applied to Makefile rules in order to remove redundant calls to scrollkeeper-update and sandbox violations. This function should be called from src_prepare.
gnome2_scrollkeeper_savelist: Find the scrolls that are about to be installed and save their location in the GNOME2_ECLASS_SCROLLS environment variable. This function should be called from pkg_preinst.
gnome2_scrollkeeper_update: Updates the global scrollkeeper database. This function should be called from pkg_postinst and pkg_postrm.
gnome2_schemas_savelist: Find if there is any GSettings schema to install and save the list in GNOME2_ECLASS_GLIB_SCHEMAS variable. This is only necessary for eclass implementations that call gnome2_schemas_update conditionally. This function should be called from pkg_preinst.
gnome2_schemas_update: Updates GSettings schemas. This function should be called from pkg_postinst and pkg_postrm.
gnome2_gdk_pixbuf_savelist: Find if there is any gdk-pixbuf loader to install and save the list in GNOME2_ECLASS_GDK_PIXBUF_LOADERS variable. This function should be called from pkg_preinst.
gnome2_gdk_pixbuf_update: Updates gdk-pixbuf loader cache if GNOME2_ECLASS_GDK_PIXBUF_LOADERS has some. This function should be called from pkg_postinst and pkg_postrm.
gnome2_query_immodules_gtk2: Updates gtk2 immodules/gdk-pixbuf loaders listing.
gnome2_query_immodules_gtk3: Updates gtk3 immodules/gdk-pixbuf loaders listing.
gnome2_giomodule_cache_update: Updates glib's gio modules cache. This function should be called from pkg_postinst and pkg_postrm.
