Do you have ghc-xmonad-contrib-devel installed?

Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2011-05-26 01:57:24 UTC
Thanks for the report anyway: I just built xmonad-0.9.2-8.fc15
which adds a new xmonad-gnome subpackage and should help with
the runtime dependencies.

Please try to test it and see if it helps.

You can either until it is available in the updates-testing repo
and down the binary packages from koji.
