libgnome is the library that provides access to the non-X11 dependent parts of the GNOME framework. The libraries in this directory do not need to link with any GUI library. This package is part of the GNOME 2 Development Platform. The GNOME 2 Desktop is a greatly improved user environment for existing GNOME applications. Enhancements include anti-aliased text and first class internationalisation support, new accessibility features for disabled users, and many improvements throughout GNOME's highly regarded user interface.
