I've been asked to build alacarte into Fedora Core, it requires pyxdg, so we'll need to get pyxdg into core also. http://people.redhat.com/rstrode/pyxdg/pyxdg.spec http://people.redhat.com/rstrode/pyxdg/pyxdg-0.15-3.fc6.src.rpm
Tech ack. Is that the extras package?
yup
Requires: python-abi = %(%{__python} -c "import sys ; print sys.version[:3]"), %{python_sitelib} is no longer needed. This is automagic now. Otherwise approved. Please coordinate its move from Extras to Core. Added to dist-fc6. Close when built for rawhide (and Extras is removed)
John can you make this gets dropped from extras?
Has someone actually talked to the maintainer of alacarte in Extras? He was asking on #fedora-devel Tuesday whether or not someone would at least talk to him about it, given that the release notes indicate that the package is supposed to go into FC6. I know everyone is busy but it would be really nice if there was a bit more communication with the Extras maintainers when packages go to Core.
BTW, > releases alacarte Found package alacarte in owners.list: Distro: Fedora Extras Desc: Simple menu editor for GNOME Owner: jpmahowald CC: foolish
Jason, John is on the CC list for this bug report.
Oops. Every village needs its idiot, I guess.
This is not going to go into Core, alacarte no longer uses it.
