Are there any good mirrors for x86_64 RawHide?
by Aleksey Nogin
Hi,
Does anybody know of any good mirror for the x86_64 RawHide? I used to
use kernel.org, but it now seems to be about a week out-of-date.
Thanks!

Java in Fedora
by Carwyn Edwards
Where can I find more info about the thinking behind how Java
applications like ant/tomcat/xerces etc are being added to FC? We
Currently use Jpackage.org for all our Java packages but it seems that
with FC2 onwards there are going to be horrible package conflicts.
Is there any cooperation or plan in relation to this? As and end user
it's imperative for me that I should at least be able to plug in either
of the Sun/Blackdown/IBM sdks and get a full SDK runtime/toolset.

Anyone know if dovecot will support GSSAPI ? It seems to have SASL
support but not the GSSAPI mechanism..

Mandrake macro %makeinstall ?
by Hugo van der Kooij
Hi,
I could not find the mandrake macro %makeinstall on the page
http://www.fedora.us/wiki/ReferenceMandrakeRPMMacros
Does anyone know what it should do exactly?
My guess is it should do
make install --prefix=${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}%{prefix}
But I could be completely mistaken.
Hugo.

NFS exports w/ nfs-utils-1.0.6-19.fc2
by Alex Kiernan
I just upgraded to this & my NFS exports broke. Chasing it down, it
expects /proc/fs/nfsd to be a mounted instance of the nfsd filesystem
else it fails (having logged success just to make it more confusing :)
A bug, or just that some other piece of infrastructure hasn't caught
up yet?

Updating to xorg-x11 packages?
by C.M. Connelly
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Yum started complaining about missing XFree86 packages, which led
me to discover the xorg-x11 packages in the archive. Is there
some trivial way to migrate to these packages short of installing
them manually (and possibly having to remove the XFree packages
first)?
Thanks,
Claire

will FC2 test 2 release be delayed
by Scott Sloan
I'm sure everyone has heard about gnome's servers being compromised
recently. Although they believe the source repositories were not
touched, gnome 2.6 final release has been delayed. I'm wondering if this
will in return delay the release of FC2 test 2 which was scheduled for
March 29? (according to http://fedora.redhat.com/participate/schedule/)

Thanks, Seth. I actually had to update yum first, and then do
yum -yt --exclude='XFree86*' install 'xorg-x11*'
but it did the trick.
Also, I hadn't realized that there was a separate mailing list for
the test releases, so I guess I missed any instructions that were
posted there. ;-)

Any takers for wine package of fedora.us?
by Panu Matilainen
Seems I simply don't have bad enough an itch to find time to keep
scratching the wine package for fedora.us
(https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1040)
It sure could use some love and care from somebody who *really* cares
about wine, optimal solution would be if Vincent (the RHL/FC packager of
the wine crew for sf.net wine packages) were to adopt the package to
confirm to fedora.us policies and submit. Obviously fedora.us QA can't
really keep up with the pace of wine development but if there were even
occasional known good, relatively stable versions of wine available in
fedora.us it'd be nice.
Any takers? Otherwise I'm afraid I'll just have to close #1040 as
WONTFIX :(
