Mono.Cecil problems (mono 1.9)
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
I think I've found the source of the cecil problems which stop the likes
of mono-tools and monodevelop from building without a lot of hacking
around.
cecil.pc is pointing at /usr/lib irrespective of if you're on 32 or 64
machines. The latest build of mono (1.9.1-2) has this fixed and I'll see
if I can get mono-tools to work on a testbed.
Here's hoping!
TTFN
Paul

Eclipse plugin directory ownership
by Jerry James
This doesn't look right. On an F-8 x86-64 machine:
# rpm -qf /usr/lib64/eclipse/plugins
libswt3-gtk2-3.3.0-31.fc8
So no eclipse package owns that directory, and only one of the plugins
I have installed owns it. Which package(s) should really own it?

Firefox language packs
by Mark Bidewell
Firefox supports many languages (good) However all language packs are
install by default (not so good). While I can uninstall the uneeded packs
by hand it would be nice if they could be broken out as separate RPMs like
for koffice or openoffice. Is this possible?

F9 beta: disk druid
by Gerry Reno
Some observations from my first attempt at loading F9beta:
I loaded up a copy of F9beta and went through setting up some raid
arrays and LVM. When it went to copy the install image to the hard
drive, the machine reset and so I went back through the install again.
At the disk druid screens I selected Custom because I had already set up
all the partitioning, raid and LVM. But the screen showed all the raid
arrays as 'foreign'. So I had to delete all the LVM (which was on top
of the raid) and then delete all the raid arrays and redeclare
everything again. This should not have been necessary.
Something which was very annoying was the fact that I was building
some RAID-1 arrays for /boot, swap, and /. I wanted 2 drives and a
spare drive. The partitions on the first two drives went fine, sda1
and sdb1 were 196M, sda2 and sdb2 were 4G, sda3 and sdb3 were 100G.
When I went to partition the third drive, sdc1 was 196M, sdc2 was 4G,
but when I declared the next partition of 100G I expected disk druid to
make it sdc3. Instead it makes it sdc2 100G and renames sdb2 to sdb3
4G. I wish it would not try to outsmart the user. I know what I want
the partitions to look like. Just do it. If disk druid is trying to
optimize things then there should be a checkbox that says something like
'do not optimize'. I struggled for an hour with this and finally gave
up trying to setup the partitions in a sane manner.
I also noticed that when I re-enter the install that all the drives
get new lettering. eg: /dev/sdg the first time through became /dev/sda
the next time, and then /dev/sdc the third time. The system I loaded
the beta on has three SATA controllers and it seems like it is randomly
picking the controllers and assigning the devices. This is rather
confusing.

Sazanami and VLGothic fonts
by Warren Togami
I noticed the description of the VLGothic fonts package.
"
VLGothic provides Japanese TrueType fonts from the Vine Linux project.
Most of the glyphs are taken from the M+ and Sazanami Gothic fonts,
but some have also been improved by the project.
"
Does this mean that VLGothic is a superset of Sazanami?
(Could these be considered redundant fonts taking up space
unnecessarily? I'm guessing not, but just checking to be sure.)

seamonkey installed for unknown reason
by Orion Poplawski
A kickstart install of today's rawhide installed seamonkey for some
unknown reason. Removing it after install did not result in any other
package being removed. Could it be satisfying some other dependency?
Anyone else see this?

KDE4 & KDE3 programs - Color inheritance problems
by Kelly Miller
I've noticed while running KDE4 that KDE3 programs don't seem to inherit
colors properly (even if "apply to non-KDE4 programs" is clicked), so
I'm going to drop a hint from looking into the config files:
KDE4 stores colors under custom headers in the kdeglobals file. KDE3
also stored colors in kdeglobals, but under the [General] header.
KDE4's color adjuster does not write colors in [General] - I suspect
that is why KDE3 programs don't inherit colors properly.
