Proposed patch to spec file. Includes two new patches.

Thanks for the report.  I'm trying out CMakeSetup on my F8 box, but when I try
to configure a project I get:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error'
  what():  basic_string::_S_construct NULL not valid

and it crashes.  Any ideas?

Oups. Maybe my "unicode" patch is not that bullet-proof. I'll have a look. I 
also noticed that the window title is scambled.

Do you have a backtrace of the bug, so that I can focus on it?

Let me know if you want me to install any more debuginfo packages.  What I'm
doing is running CMakeSetup in the directory of a project.  Specifying "." for
the project dir and "fedora" for the build dir.  It asks then to create the
"fedora" directory.

Got this from a core file.  Process runs okay when run under gdb.

Sorry Orion.

I have been very busy with my daily job. I do not know how to reproduce your 
crash correctly.

However, I agree that my patch is not so correct, because I see strange 
behavior (such as a scrambled window title).

Maybe it is safer to forget my proposal and close the bug.

I'm happy to leave the bug open until you have a chance to work on it some more.

Orion, as next release of CMake has a better GUI (using Qt), let's close that 
bug.

Do you plan to push cmake-2.6 to released versions of Fedora (F-8, and soon 
F-9)?

Sounds good.

Currently 2.6 will be in F-10.  I'm hesitant to push to F-8 and F-9 as there are
some incompatibilities with 2.4.  Perhaps after 2.6 has been out for a while and
projects have a chance to adapt.
