parentpkg-descr claimed this was glib 1.3 ::) (diff)
Although funny, the pkg-descr didn't explain anything about what the
GnomeVFS is or does. Plus the humor was based upon a pretty old joke.

This is the GNOME Virtual File System.
-Embryonic is not the word. This code will probably delete all

-your life.
+GnomeVFS is a filesystem abstraction library allowing applications
+plugable transparent access to a variety of "real" filesystems, from
+WebDAV to digital cameras, to the local filesystem. It also contains a
+number of other convenient file utilities such as a comphrehensive MIME
+database / Application registry, and a copy engine. Use of GnomeVFS
+ensures that an application or component will be usable by Nautilus or
+other GnomeVFS applications for handling the display of data from
+various URIs, as well.
