Well, the --with-x=no would really only eliminate the dependencies on: libSM.so.6()(64bit) libX11.so.6()(64bit) libXmu.so.6()(64bit) libXt.so.6()(64bit) Thanks to modular X, those dependencies are really small. But what you're really noting is that we're hardcoding a Requires for evince and firefox, because we need to define R_PDFVIEWER and R_BROWSER for the R build. We could make an alternate R package that sets R_BROWSER to links, but I'm not sure what non-graphical PDF viewer we could set for R_PDFVIEWER. I suppose we could leave it entirely unset. Let me poke this for a bit and see what I can come up with. Thanks for the quick reply. This sounds absolutely great. I'm looking forward to see what you come up with. Thanks. Here's a patch that uses xdg-open instead of hardwired firefox and evince: http://scop.fedorapeople.org/patches/xdg-utils/R.patch Hi Ville, The link to your patch returns a '404 - Page could not be found'. Thanks, Rasmus Yes, I removed the file after I saw it was applied to CVS as part of http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/R/R.spec?r1=1.30&r2=1.31&makepatch=1&diff_format=h R-2.6.0-3.fc7.1 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. Excellent! It works great. I am really amazed how quick this got fixed. Thanks!! |
