Hi Ricardo, We're thinking about using gnome-screensaver in Fedora Core sometime in the near future. I'll keep you updated on its status.
Couple of quick things: 1. Instead of patching the .desktop file, run the desktop-file-install. In addition, it should be for Fedora not Redhat. For help, refer to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingGuidelines#head-37131c9c3cb4b69fdb1269f6e91fa9c413d2add1 2. Use the preferred buildroot. For help, refer to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingGuidelines#head-c2cfbc6be2860c5d2634d06714098e1560667de6 3. Most of your Requires are redundant, since they are pulled in from the BuildRequires.
Regarding comment #3, gnome-screensaver has been in FC development for a few days/weeks now (at 0.0.14 currently). Should this bug be closed, or should it stay open in order to try and get gnome-screensaver into Extras for FC4? Matthias
I guess it all depends on what Ricardo wants to do
gnome-screensaver won't work in FC4 (it depends on gtk2 2.8). Closing bug.
