[system-tools] GNOME System Tools 0.91.0 has been released



The GNOME System Tools version 0.91.0 "Freedom of speech" have been
released.

The GNOME System Tools are a set of cross-platform configuration
utilities for Linux and other Unix systems. Internally they are divided
in frontends and backends. The frontend knows nothing about the
underlying system and provides the same user interface across the
different types of systems. The backend knows how to read and write the
configuration information. The GNOME System Tools do not impose a new
database on the system: they work with the default configuration files
so that configuration can still be done by hand or by other tools.

Right now the GNOME System Tools fully support various distros/OS such
as: Redhat, Mandrake, SuSE, Fedora, Debian, Gentoo, Slackware, FreeBSD,
OpenNA, PLD, Vine and Specifix.

WARNING: By default, only the users, network and time tools will be
built, for compiling the other tools you can do:

  --enable-services
  --enable-boot

at configure time
