Thanks for the bug report concerning GCompris. I just uploaded a new
version on the olpc Wiki page with the following fixes:
- chess, scalesboard, sudoku: Uses the icons provided in bug #7138
- redraw*.activity.xo: Added missing icon
- gcompris.activity.xo: Added a bunch of missing icons, fixing activities
enumerate and money for fixed images.
- Warning: The full GCompris bundle does not comes with gnuchess and gnucap
(for electricity).
You can install these programs with yum.
Bruno.
