i don't want to move assistant in qt package because it almost needs the whole html files, which are included in devel packger rather and take 26MB! Then we can only split off the qcad manual to avoid qt-devel dependency in qcad. Uh, assistant doesn't really _need_ the Qt documentation, as Gérard says, it can also be used to show application documentation thanks to the profiles feature. And in fact qt-devel in FC6 doesn't even seem to require qt-devel-docs, so it's already possible to install assistant without the Qt documentation. I'd suggest putting the assistant.desktop (which only works with Qt documentation installed) into qt-devel-docs and put the executable either into qt or into its own qt-assistant package (which is what Debian is doing AFAIK). Similarly, it would be nice if assistant-qt4 was split out of qt4-doc, which, while at least not a -devel package, is still a huge library documentation package. Too bad it's probably too late for F7. F6/F7 updates maybe? Interesting, I think I like that approach. Would be a good chance for us to unify our qt/qt4 packaging strategies a bit. Definitely, post F7 material though. Any chance we can get this changed now? Than? opinion? Hello? Progress? I'm starting to get paraview 3.2.1 into rawhide and it ships docs read by assistant and I also don't want to pull in qt4-doc. I'm going to add "Requires: qt4-assistant" in the hopes it will be split later. Also, looks like we no longer have /usr/bin/assistant, but we do have /usr/bin/assistant-qt4. What's up there? It's called assistant-qt4 so it doesn't conflict with Qt 3, the QAssistantClient class is patched to look for that already, if paraview uses some custom code to launch assistant, it should be patched too. > I'm going to add "Requires: qt4-assistant" in the hopes it will be split later. That's probably your best bet. In the meantime, I'll work to implement Kevin's suggestion from comment #3 for qt4. qt4-4.3.3-1.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update qt4' qt4-4.3.3-1.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update qt4' qt4-4.3.3-1.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. qt4-4.3.3-1.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 stable repository.
