4.7.95 a couple of bugs...
by Colin J Thomson 27 Dec '11

27 Dec '11

Hi, I installed 4.7.95, although many bugs seem to be fixed I have found two (so far) that are a nuisance. A regression maybe on Kontact crashing on exit: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=289693 Folderview starts blank any attempt to configure it results in a crash: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=289774 And this crash also happened: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=289863 Thanks again to all involved..

filelight-4.7.90-1 in f16/kde-unstable
by Rex Dieter 27 Dec '11

27 Dec '11

Seems I inadvertantly introduced an epoch with in filelight-4.7.90-1, which was flagged during a reviewing this package for inclusion in fedora. In the meantime, I've filelight passed review and imported into fedora without the epoch as filelight-4.7.90-2. I rebuilt this and put into kde-unstable too. I mention all this because the removal of epoch means for those of you using the f16 kde-unstable repo, upgrading the package away from -1 requires manual intervention. My suggestion would be something like: (make sure you're current): yum update then, yum distro-sync filelight -- rex

Session Restore
by Ed Greshko 26 Dec '11

26 Dec '11

Weird, yet minor, problem.... But still want to find a reason/fix. Running a fully updated F16 system and KDE (of course). If I log out of a session most applications are restored on log in. I know there are some exceptions and that isn't the issue. I have 6 desktops and if I log out while in Desktop 2, I would expect to be back at Desktop 2 when I login. But, no matter what, I always find myself back in Desktop 1. I have "Different widgets for each desktop" defined. However, I've not been able to reproduce the failure on a VM. Dang.... So, does anyone have a suggestion as to how to figure out what is preventing what should be the expected behavior? -- A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof was to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools. -- Douglas Adams in "Mostly Harmless

plasma-icontasks
by Rex Dieter 24 Dec '11

24 Dec '11

I packaged up an initial version of plasma-icontasks, http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/?content=144808 I'm personally not entirely able (time mostly) or interested in maintaining it officially. Hopefully, now that the initial work is done for you, maybe taking it over would be easier. ;) .spec srpm here: http://rdieter.fedorapeople.org/rpms/plasma-icontasks/ I'll put some builds of this into kde-testing shortly to wet your appetites. -- rex

When yum finds a broken package
by Anne Wilson 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

Running an update (F14 - yes, I know about EOL) I found that there is a problem with AdobeReader_enu. I excluded it to get the rest of the updates, then intended to remove it and install the latest version. The removal failed with Error in PREUN scriptlet in rpm package AdobeReader_enu I know this isn't a Fedora issue, really, but can someone tell me what I need to do to get rid of this broken package?

Device Notifier and NFS
by Ed Greshko 19 Dec '11

19 Dec '11

I have 2 NFS mounted file systems that show up in Device Notifier with the option to open with file manager. This on an F16 system. Is there a way to disable these showing in the Notifier? -- A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof was to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools. -- Douglas Adams in "Mostly Harmless

Device Notifier finally tamed
by Claude Jones 18 Dec '11

18 Dec '11

There were an unusual number of updates today including what appeared to be most, if not all, of the KDE packages. Device Notifier is no longer popping up every few minutes, and I see that all the drives on the network that were appearing are no longer listed. Thanks for that fix. Now, if you could just get KMail to heel... -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA

Packaging Razor-Qt
by Rahul Sundaram 16 Dec '11

16 Dec '11

Hi Thought someone here might be interested in packaging this http://razor-qt.org/ "Razor-qt is an advanced, easy-to-use, and fast desktop environment based on Qt technologies. It has been tailored for users who value simplicity, speed, and intuitive interface. Unlike desktop environments, Razor-qt also works fine with weak machines." Rahul
