It's not really hard, you just have to run "make deinstall reinstall clean" as root in each package directory in the order I gave in the first mail.

The only concern is that I'm not sure how related packages of a few dependencies will react (glib bindings?) and did not test the impact in heavily integrated desktops (especialy gnome, I'm just running a few standalone gtk apps).

But I hope that it will help the port team :)
