yum-presto and comps

2010-01-07 Thread Jens Petersen
In F12 we shipped yum-presto in @gnome-desktop - a kind of a compromise I guess. Presto/deltarpm is very useful for machines with low net connectivity to mirrors but enough resources to rebuild rpms. But yum-presto is not a desktop package at all and certainly does not belong in the gnome-desktop

Re: bitmap-fonts by default?

2009-09-30 Thread Jens Petersen
XEmacs needs it. We have an explicit reference to a LucidaTypewriter font. Sure: and xorg-x11-fonts also provides LT. I am not asking if we should drop bitmap-fonts (though it needs to be split up and repackaged)... the question was why are we installing it by default and when can we stop? :)

Re: bitmap-fonts by default?

2009-09-30 Thread Jens Petersen
IMHO default packages in default groups should have a clear user, or be downgraded to optional. Right I suggest we make it optional in comps-f13 and see if anything breaks. Jens -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com

bitmap-fonts by default?

2009-09-28 Thread Jens Petersen
We have been looking at updating bitmap-fonts recently, and noticed that it is still listed mandatory in the comps @base-x group. So I just wondered a couple of naive questions: - does bitmap-fonts have to be installed by default? - what actually needs it? Jens -- fedora-devel-list mailing

So I start a rawhide install and decide to browse (customize) the package groups... I see an uncategorized group standing out - turns out to be a new @books group which currently contains 3 devel books... Then I remember fedora-security-guide-en_US (which doesn't really fit with the devel

Re: REMINDER: End of life of Fedora 9

2009-06-28 Thread Jens Petersen
Just a reminder that the end of life date for F9 was set at 2009-07-10 at last week's FESCo meeting. This means that as of this date, no new builds will be allowed in koji, and no updates will be pushed. I guess it also means that a lot of F9 bugs in bugzilla will get auto-closed very

Re: GDM Language list...

2009-06-18 Thread Jens Petersen
The desktop spin in F11 still had language groups, AFAIK. Actually I removed them all at the very end of the F10 cycle (and then reverted the change for the f10 branch of spin-kickstarts). So they are only for localized spins and fedora-install-fedora.ks(?) now. Jens -- fedora-devel-list
