Description Mikhael Goikhman 2001-10-13 13:19:05 EDT 
I am speaking about the new fvwm2 rpm:
  
http://rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/rawhide/1.0/i386/RedHat/RPMS/fvwm2-2.4.2-1.i386.html

Here is a list of problems with it:

  * datadir is missing (FvwmForm-*, FvwmScript-* and more)
  * fvwm2/fvwm/ directory duplication may be avoided and there are
    2 solutions, one is not to use fvwm2 prefix dir at all and
    another is to specify --disable-package-subdirs

The biggest problem is that this rpm is not compatible with the
official fvwm-themes rpm. The solution is to package fvwm-themes
together with fvwm (or if you insist on that name, fvwm2).

Some links about the official fvwm and fvwm-themes rpms:

  http://fvwm-themes.sourceforge.net/rpm/

Mikhael.

More notes.

This rpm is built without support for libstroke so a nice feature is missing
(issue commands and start programs by drawing figures using a mouse).

  http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=libstroke

On the other hand, there is a support for gnome-libs that is only used in
FvwmGtk module. FvwmGtk may be built as GTK+ application or GNOME application.
It is up to you to decide whether to require GNOME to be installed just for
one FVWM module or not.

Regards,
Mikhael.
