Description of problem: gpointing-device-settings is absent from Fedora 20 Beta Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: very : -) Steps to Reproduce: yum search gpointing-device-settings yum whatprovides '*/gpointing-device-settings' Actual results: killing emptiness Expected results: glowing presence of the subject Additional info:
This has been orphaned and blocked (I believe due to no maintainer). What desktop were you trying to use it under?
> What desktop were you trying to use it under? Gnome 3. Of course I've actually pulled out a: xinput --set-prop 12 --type=int 281 1 xinput --set-prop 12 --type=int 285 2 ..to get trackpoint scroll on my Lenovo W530, but I'm not sure others would be as industrious.
OK. In any case, the package was dropped intentionally. See: http://mm3test.fedoraproject.org/hyperkitty/list/devel@mm3test.fedoraproject.org/thread/TUPULKMZ5P7QZT5HPSHZHZO4E4DEDATN/ Closing this as NOTABUG - if you know of someone who's interested in bringing it back and fixing it, it can be resurrected via the policy at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Orphaned_package_that_need_new_maintainers
