Description of problem: Please update libXNVCtrl to 295.09, the 169.12 version in Fedora is very old and current gnome-applet-sensors is also looking for a newer version than our Fedora is currently shipping. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libXNVCtrl-169.12-5.fc15 How reproducible: Everytime, see above and below Actual results: libXNVCtrl-169.12-5 Expected results: libXNVCtrl-295.09-1 (or better) Additional info: Looks like upstream switched from imake to standard Makefiles. I don't think the ABI is compatible, so maybe a soname bump is required?
Adam, ping? Can you please reply to this report somehow? Thank you.
Alex Murray's indicator-sensors for GNOME 3 also needs a newer version of libXNVCtrl for its nVidia sensor plugin to work.
Yeah it would be great to see an updated version as there is no way to check the library's version at compile time and hence even say #ifdef out the code which requires the newer version to allow it to compile against the old version currently in Fedora - and as a recent convert to Fedora from Ubuntu I'd love to get indicator-sensors packaged for Fedora but this currently blocks that...
This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '16'. 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 16'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 16 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, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. 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
Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.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.
Still a bug in Fedora 18! http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=4836 Please re-open against F18.
