All it takes is for some exploit to be discovered within the btclient, and whammo. I'm sorry that BT is so difficult to use that you have to futz with firewalls. But I don't feel that it is Fedora's place to allow applications to poke holes in firewalls not even on the system. -- Jesse Keating RHCE (geek.j2solutions.net) Fedora Legacy Team (www.fedoralegacy.org) GPG Public Key (geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub) Was I helpful?

When trusted application foo is being run by user in trusted group bar (or open for any user) - the firewall will open ports xxxx to yyyy should foo request they be opened - for the duration that foo is running. That would be slick.

Problem launching Terminal
by Willem Riede 19 Dec '05

19 Dec '05

After update from today's rawhide I don't seem to be able to launch additional terminals from the gnome menu. "Starting terminal" appears in the panel for several seconds, then disappears. I had two terminals at login after boot from the previously saved session, and those became as dead as a doornail after I had the above experience trying to get a third. Eventually the panel became non-responsive and I had to kill X with ctrl-alt-bs. After logging in again, no more terminals, though the panel problem was not reproducible. After reboot I have my default terminals again... Anybody see anything like this? Thanks, Willem Riede.

Requires vs Requires.private ?
by Denis Leroy 19 Dec '05

19 Dec '05

So what is up with the "Requires.private" entries in various pkgconfig .pc files ? Most mock fc5 builds are currently failing because of a missing dependency between libX11-devel and libxau-devel. Culprit seems to be : bash-3.00# grep -i requires /usr/lib/pkgconfig/x11.pc Requires: xproto kbproto inputproto Requires.private: xau xdmcp

Rhythmbox with iPod support
by Jean-Rene Cormier 19 Dec '05

19 Dec '05

I was just wondering if Rhythmbox is gonna have support for iPod in FC5? I just compiled the Rhythmbox SRPMS from rawhide under FC4 and I needed libgpod which is not in rawhide so I'm assuming support for iPod in Rhythmbox won't be in FC5. Is there any reason preventing the inclusion of libgpod in FC? If not I think it would be nice to have it included to get iPod support in Rhythmbox out of the box ;) Thanks! -- Jean-Rene Cormier <jrc(a)jrcormier.com>

gnome 2.12 for fc4?
by dragoran 18 Dec '05

18 Dec '05

kde 3.5 was released as an update for fc4. but what about gnome 2.12? fc5 will use gnome 2.14 while fc4 still uses gnome 2.10. so any reasons for not shipping gnome 2.12? (I know that it will require a new gtk and cairo)
