Hi!
Ryan Lerch redented a post about gpick which is a floss color picker tool:
http://libregraphicsworld.org/articles.php?article_id=31
http://code.google.com/p/gpick/
I just built and installed it on Fedora 14 and it's pretty nice. I added it to the package wishlist too, so if you know anybody who can do packaging you might want to talk to them about the possibility of packaging it :)
If you want to try it yourself here's the steps I took to make it work:
- Download the tarball http://code.google.com/p/gpick/downloads/detail?name=gpick_0.2.3.tar.gz&...
- Expand the tarball (Right click, extract)
- In the terminal, go to the expanded tarball's directory.
- yum install scons boost boost-devel flex flex-devel lemon lemon-devel lua lua-devel dbus-glib-devel -y
- scons
- scons install
It should then appear under Applications > Graphics > Gpick
:) Let me know if you have any trouble building it - copy/paste the scons error message and we'll figure it out.

It's just a quick stab I took over lunch break, so you might want to have someone smarter look at it. ;-)

Woah, that's one hell of a color picker.
Right now I'm using GColor2 from the repos, which is the complete opposite of gpick when it comes to functionality. It does the job nicely but nothing more than that. I'll be trying out gpick (thanks for the building instructions!) to see what it's capable of. I'm already liking the "Palette From Image" tool, found under the Tools menu. :)

Since you guys seem to like it, I'm willing to take on the package maintenance! :-) I'll need to find a reviewer to get it into Fedora quickly though.
