requiring a (non-specific) font?
by Matthew Miller
I happened to install Scratch onto a remove VM (on Fedora Infrastructure's
new private cloud, in fact) where no fonts were installed. It runs, but
Pango throws warnings about not having anything for 'latin' or 'common' --
and of course the UI has boxes where the menus and variables should be.
I could require something generic, like 'font(:lang=en)', but that's likely
to pull in a random decorative font.
I could require some specific font, but that seems wrong. (Particularly
since if a "better" match for latin or common happen to be installed,
whatever I said is a requirement will actually be irrelevant.)
Orrr, should I just not worry about this case?

Error with desktop-file-install
by Truong Anh Tuan
Hi there,
I am packaging the new package: pencil [1].
Finally, necessary changes (folder, package released, etc.) have been
made in upstream. I also updated .spec file and retried to build the
package.
However, I got his error message (It seems to relate to the new entry
desktop-file-install):
Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files /home/tuanta/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/pencil-2.0-2.fc17.x86_64
error: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
/usr/share/applications/pencil.desktop
RPM build errors:
Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
/usr/share/applications/pencil.desktop
Any helps are highly appreciated.

package naming -- axis2 version 1.4
by Andy Grimm
Another bizarre package naming question from the java world:
Axis2 version 1.4 and version 1.6 seem to generate very different code
from WSDLs. During the Fedora 17 cycle, I packaged 1.6 simply because
it was latest, and I hoped that I could make it work for my needs. I
have not been able to, and so I'd like to contribute a version 1.4
package for compatibility. However, I have no idea how to go about
naming a package like this. The official upstream project is "Axis2",
and the normal scheme would be confusing ("axis214"). I could use
something like "axis2v14". Any thoughts or recommendations on this?
Thanks.
