some space saving
by Matthias Clasen 08 Oct '08

Here is a patch that adds -gnome-games -yelp -gimp-help-browser to the desktop spin kickstart file. With todays rawhide, it brings the size down to 715M. Hopefully, with tomorrows rawhide (which actually has a split off gimp-help-browser), it'll be much closer to 700. I would have pushed this to the spin-kickstarts repo, but git gives me an error. Can someone else please push this ? Matthias

PreUpgrade
by Rahul Sundaram 08 Oct '08

Hi, Preupgrade is not in the default package list for the desktop live cd. Considering packagekit feature of prompting on new distro releases which in Fedora would depend on preupgrade, shouldn't be included? Reference: http://www.packagekit.org/img/gpk-distro-upgrade-notify.png Rahul

I think I've fixed the f-spot import dialog. I didn't spot the missing icon in brasero, so maybe you should file a bug with a screenshot for that. Matthias

Polishing the F10 desktop
by Matthias Clasen 01 Oct '08

01 Oct '08

Around beta time, the destkop team usually starts tracking minor polish issues, like nonworking menuitems, missing or wrong icons, etc. Traditionally, the tracker bug for this effort has been called 'yellowpad' (an actual yellow pad was involved in very early iterations of this process). This time around, I've given it the more neutral alias 'F10DesktopTarget'. For more serious bugs (like 'no sound' or 'my panel crashes') we have the 'F10DesktopBlocker' tracker bug. How you can help: - Install an F10 beta desktop or boot the F10 beta live cd - Look around on the desktop for polish issues - File bugs for the issues you find, and put them on the appropriate blocker Lets squash those bugs !
