I'd suggest to repack the official package, due to copyright issues with  
Mozilla foundation (see earlier discussion about Firefox).

Somehow the md5sum isn't rsynced. It isn't available in the rsync list.

Some comments of the packages follow.

As we have de,hu and pt_BR as KDE packages, shouldn't it be a good idea to  
include these as Aspell dictionaries as well (if there's room that is)

There's a 3.2 version.

Isn't it time we shipt with slocate/rlocate or similar?

There's a new version out, 2.0.3, which include a security fix - I'll  
provide a recipe for that.

I wan't to rename this package/recipe to LittleCMS  
(http://www.littlecms.com/)
> Madwifi-Tools 0.9.3
I'd like the madwifi modules, not just the tools. Are the modules included  
in the kernel package?

> Parted 1.8.2
Since we removed QtParted, shouldn't we add GParted, or some other  
graphical partitioner, to the ISO?

We still haven't a cron daemon on the ISO. I think this is a basic app and  
my vote goes to Dcron - small and simple.
