up2date dependency error with biarch packages (x86_64/i386)
by Chris Wright
I got the following result during recent up2date attempt on x86_64,
which kills the update. I manually grabbed and installed the i386
packages for dbus, dbus-glibc, hal, and libcap. Subsequent up2date
completes properly. Should up2date be able to resolve this type of
dependency?
Would be useful to include the %{ARCH} in missing dependency, since
the message below does not clearly convey the actual problem. Is
there a way to coax this information out (--verbose gets that info
when fetching headers, but not when displaying the dependency error)?

No way to choose default application in Nautilus anymore ?
by Jerone Young
I don't know if anyone has noticed. But there is no way to choose what
application you want to have a file opened with in Nautilus by default
with Gnome 2.8 in FC3. For example I have an .ogg file...I double
click on it I'm forced to use Rhythmbox...but I want it to open xmms.
While I can right click and go to xmms, this is really efficient and
annoying. There is no way to set it so it opens the application I want
when I double click on a icon...how did this get missed ?

python2.2 -> python2.3
by Alan Milligan
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi,
Around a year ago, we took a decision to create our own RH9-based distro
(https://rpm.last-bastion.net) focused upon our Python/Zope/Plone business.
This firmly requires python2.3, and we went to much effort to remove all
2.2 dependencies in the code base.
Since that time of course, Fedora has come along and has gained much
support and is progressing phenominally with wide community
participation and acceptance.
We'd very much like to get our changes integrated into Fedora Core.
Please inform me (on or off the list) how we can most effectively profer
our patches for the community (and how we can be involved in shaping
future Python direction).
Regards, Alan

Purely on the philosophy/integration front, I'd think Internet Explorer
should be the best browser for Windows.... Which points to the fact
that there are more important things to consider than philosophy and
integration ;-)
The fact that firefox and epiphany both use Mozilla under the hood means
there's a lot less difference between the two than firefox and IE,
though.
My main question is: which browser will help a new user justify his
choice to migrate from Windows? Does either browser lack necessary
features from their MS counterpart? What features give them a clear
advantage over IE? Someone switching from Windows is going to find a
lot of things that are strange under Fedora whether or not its all
consistent. The important thing is that they walk away thinking that
the differences are better (enhance productivity, security, fun,
etc....)
I heard someone mention built-in popup blocking in Firefox. Is there
equivalent functionality for Epiphany that we do/can ship? Any other
features that one browser or the other has that people will miss when
they have to use IE on Windows?
-Toshio
P.S. Every day I use Windows at work I find myself thinking if only I
had grep or tabbed browsing or... right now this would be so much
easier. I think that's a good sign for us. I think the more of those
moments people have on Windows, the better :-) Conversely, I think we
want to minimize those moments when a Windows user is running under
Fedora. The web browser is one of the non-commandline applications where
we can make this happen.

My Opinion since you asked for it:
One of my major annoyances is things that pop up obtrusively. I think
that a default option should be as intuitive and non-intrusive as
possible while still guiding the user to the proper solution.
With that in mind, I would say that the icon appearing on the desktop
with some descriptive title that it is a blank CD and what drive it is
in (realizing that some have multiple burners on their systems) would be
adequate.
Right clicking should give you the option to burn it with your choice of
installed burners.
Double-clicking on it should activate the default burning software which
would be burn://.
I would do this for audio CD also.
i.e. Treat removable media as kind of a pseudo mime-type in nautilus.
If people want to automagically start up things then they can have that
option in the preferences. But this is a semi-automatic solution that
will avoid all the familiar and annoying problems like:
- Burning with an app that asks you to enter a blank CD and then having
another app start up in the middle of the burn. You don't *always* start
a burn by sticking in a blank CD.
- Opening up the default burning software while you already have another
one open in preparation for burning. While all software *should* be
written to block access via hal, forcing that feature on all CD burning
apps just so the default doesn't screw up is not entirely fair ...
especially if they are also included in Fedora (past and present since
supposedly upgrading Fedora between major releases is something that is
"supported").
Just my opinion.
