Comment (by ionic@…):

 gnome-vfs doesn't build anymore due to previously deprecated and as of (at
 least) glib2 v. 2.36 (also glib2-devel which is at 2.37 currently) removed
 functions and types.

 I haven't seen any patch either.

 Also, gnome-vfs is deprecated anyway, replaced by gvfs and gio. Can't we
 make ports depending on gnome-vfs like gstreamer010-gst-plugins-base (and
 others) depend on gvfs && gio and compile with those two instead? Do they
 even really need gnome-vfs?

 Rewriting gnome-vfs to work with glib2 and glib2-devel just isn't worth
 the effort, as only a few packages are depending on it nowadays.
