Still missing xeyes

[Aaron Gaudio]

Fedora Core 3 no longer includes the xeyes utility as part of xorg-x11-
tools. Is it provided by some other rpm?

Have you tried looking for Geyes?  I think it's part of Gnome.

You are correct, it's no longer in xorg-x11-toos, also the Changelog says
it:

* Thu Nov 11 2004 Kristian Høgsberg 
  - Removed commented out xbiff, xeyes and xditview files from file
    lists, they are in CVS if we need them.

* Mon Aug 23 2004 Mike A. Harris  6.7.99.902-6
  - Remove a bunch of legacy Xaw/Xt applications which really should not be
    part of X11 sources (xbiff,xditview,xeyes,xmessage)

So it might be the best to report it on bugzilla... :-) If you really miss
xeyes.... Or _need_ it...

Or you build your own RPM.

Best,
 Oliver

There was a thread on the fedora-extras list where someone was 
interested in building them for extras.

https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-extras-list/2005-February/msg00617.ht...

The thread might explain the status better.
