The QT4-GUI (nfs4-acl-editor) is missing in the RPM of the nfs4-acl-tools (nfs4-acl-tools-0.3.2-2). Inside the nfs4-acl-tools source bundle is a QT4-GUI (GUI/nfs4-acl-editor)for the nfs4-acl-tools, would it possible to include the GUI (nfs4-acl-editor) in the next version of the nfs4-acl-tools RPM? It's easy to build, the GUI just needs QT4 and builds after a 'qmake-qt4' just fine.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This is still valid, at least for Fedora 11... because I couldn't test Fedora 12 yet...

Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
I should look into do things...
I noticed the GUI is (still/again ?) missing in Fedora 16 (& 15). If it isn't possible to include it for some reason, at least the description of the package should be changed, to reflect the omission of the GUI: $ rpm -qi nfs4-acl-tools Name : nfs4-acl-tools Version : 0.3.3 Release : 7.fc15 Architecture: x86_64 Install Date: Wed 14 Dec 2011 14:01:35 MET Group : Applications/System Size : 105608 License : BSD Signature : RSA/SHA256, Thu 28 Jul 2011 21:00:54 MEST, Key ID 067f00b6a82ba4b7 Source RPM : nfs4-acl-tools-0.3.3-7.fc15.src.rpm Build Date : Wed 09 Feb 2011 02:05:09 MET Build Host : x86-06.phx2.fedoraproject.org Relocations : (not relocatable) Packager : Fedora Project Vendor : Fedora Project URL : http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/nfsv4/linux/ Summary : The nfs4 ACL tools Description : This package contains commandline and GUI ACL utilities for the Linux NFSv4 client.
Also missing in fc17. Should be done as sub-package to avoid bringing in qt dependency to base package.
GUi is still missing in Fedora 18
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle. Changing version to '19'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora19
Eventually what we'll want is: - something that's integrated into the file manager: you want to be able to click on a file to change its acl, not open a terminal and run "acl-editor /path/to/my/file", and - something based on Andreas Grünbacher's richacl tools. It will take a while to get there, but still, this would be an interim solution and I don't think it's worth the trouble to support. That said, if there's a volunteer to get this working and make the subpackage, they can reopen this.
Created attachment 918461 [details] Proposed patch to fix, build, and package the GUI tool Patch should apply cleanly to git://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/nfs4-acl-tools.git
