That's actually an interesting approach! I hadn't thought about this before. The sugar-logos package doesn't provide all the files the fedora-logos package does, so I guess one could list the fedora-logos one as a build requirement in the sugar-logos one and hope that it gets pulled in time then after making it provide system-logos... but I suppose we'd need to make sure that sugar-logos stayed out of the non-sugar spin composes. --Sebastian -- livecd mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/livecd
