Deleting the

tcsh? Wow. I wonder if there's more tcsh users or ppc users.. heh.
Anyway, submit a bug so the other five tcsh users can get a fix for the
problem too.
- gnome-terminal has picked up an interesting new blood-red
background
drawn behind glyphs. It's kind of striking in its own way, but I'm
going to have to change my foreground color to compensate.
Miscompilation caused by new gcc; fixed in vte-0.19.4-5.fc11, which will
be in the next rawhide push. Until then, get it here:

- Firefox has become a truly hallucinogenic experience. The
80-point
headings are amusing, as are the many pages which simply don't
render at all.
Another miscompile, this time in nspr; skip the upgrade to
nspr-4.7.3-4.fc11, or downgrade to nspr-4.7.3-3.fc11:
1. Fetch package from koji:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=73162
2. rpm --oldpackage -Uvh nspr*.rpm
No doubt more to follow. Meanwhile, those of you who haven't
upgraded
recently might just want to hold off for a little longer. The kittens
will thank you.
Things are a always a little rough right before feature freeze - a lot

Still, if we stick to it we should be able to get these things sorted
out pretty quick.
