Re: Gnome-panel update?
Hi Leonard,
Moving to fedora-desktop-list(a)redhat.com. Prolly more appropriate, hope
you don't mind.

you are planning to upgrade to 2.4.2.
Yes, I think that's the only sensible way of doing it ... gnome-panel
2.4.0 seems to have been a pretty broken release.
Great. This means I need only to
gather patches for issues that are not addressed upstream. I think the
missing help file for the update tool falls into this category.
I'm not sure what bug you're referring to here.
I am
unsure if the missing help file for the show desktop applet has been
solved upstream. This should be an easy fix for the author anyway.
Yeah, should be straightforward. The docs are in the user-guide AFAIR.
What is your opinion on splitting of a -devel package? Maybe Michael
Schwendt is willing to generate the necessary spec file diff.
I think its a good idea, yes, but I probably will only do it for FC2.
Should be straightforward too.
I'm still going through gnome-panel bugzilla for the first time. When I
get through it, I'll send you on a list of bugs which will be fixed in
the update and you can let me know if I'm missing any important ones.
Some we'll just punt until FC2, obviously.
Thanks,
Mark.
