3.7.9 never showed the problem - I ended up downgrading to that version
after each attempt with 3.7.10.

As of this morning, 3.7.10 is working just fine for me (modulo missing
plugins), but remember: I'm currently stuck in fallback mode.  Until I can
get back to a working gnome shell, I can't properly test claws in rawhide.

About gnome shell, it looks like the problem is here:

--> Processing Dependency: libcogl.so.2()(64bit) for package: clutter-gst-1.3.14-1.fc16.x86_64
--> Processing Dependency: libcogl.so.2()(64bit) for package: gnome-shell-3.1.91.1-2.fc17.x86_64

--> Processing Dependency: libcogl.so.5()(64bit) for package: mutter-3.1.92-1.fc17.x86_64
--> Processing Dependency: libcogl.so.5()(64bit) for package: clutter-1.8.0-1.fc17.x86_64

It seems that things have been rather inconsistently built?

Thanks,
