The X11 dev docs, e.g., the roff Xaw and Xt manuals, seem to have disappeared. Am I just missing the RPM they're packaged in, or are they really gone? Any chance of getting them back?
X.Org has not yet provided the documentation in modular X, so there are no packages yet. Once X.Org provides documentation tarballs that build, we will probably add them to Fedora however.

X11R7 has provided the documentation tarballs, now all we need to do is build packages for rawhide. Adding to FC5Blocker tracker.
Package inclusion approvals: Technical lead (notting): approved <mharris> I've got quite a bit of stuff to do, and 2 things were making a couple other new packages (X documentation and the utils that build it) <mharris> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=174738 <notting> 174738 seems fine Installer team (jeremy): rejected (Discussion with jeremy to find out wether this affected the installer did not yield any problems it would cause for the installer, however it was rejected due to the upstream documentation being a monolithic tarball instead of being individual documentation in each package which it is documenting (Xaw/Xt/proto headers etc.) Release engineering (jkeating): awaiting approvals of notting/jeremy Status for FC5: X documentation rejected for FC5 by installer team due to unsatisfactory upstream tarball packaging (although it isn't clear how this affects the installer).
Packages submitted for Fedora Core review: Bug #199925 Bug #199927 Once they have been approved, the packages will be checked into CVS and built for rawhide. For those looking to download them via FTP, please note that the new packages are 'noarch' now as they are in separate packaging.
The packages have now been approved and built in rawhide as 'noarch'.
