Well, I tried using Yumex to install gEDA from Fedora Extras on a clean and fully updated FC5 machine. What I ended up with is a much less integrated collection of useless tools than I did with the "recompiler installer" which I said before was a "nightmare". No menu items were added to my KDE desktop at all. Paths were not added to any desktop startup files. And so nothing works like it should.

I'll also point out that if you want the attention of the developers on a problem, it helps to be specific about the bug. Saying, for example, "And so nothing works like it should..." is a totally vague complaint, and can't be interpreted in any meaningful way to suggest changes to gEDA. This statement may express your personal frustration with gEDA, but to the rest of the world this statement is basically just flame bait. Here's a useful guide to posting questions to open-source e-mail lists.
