I know it's too late for Fedora 8, but Fedora 8 won't be the last Fedora
release ever. ;-)

pending Fedora 7 testing updates
by Till Maas
Hiyas,
there are many pending Fedora 7 testing updates currently in Bodhi, when will
they be pushed to the testing repository? The oldest waiting updates seem to
be 7 days old now.

FutureFeature - Split KDE packages
by axel @ieee.org
Maybe a few days before the official release of Fedora 8 isn't the right time to discuss this matter but I'll give it a try.
I know that Fedora is a Gnome based distribution but I prefer using KDE instead. However one thing that I don't like about KDE is that it installs in your system many programs that you don't really need or want. Of course this happens because that's how KDE packages come from kde.org I believe e.g. kdemultimedia, kdenetwork
I think it would be a good idea to split those big packges into smaller/seperate ones. This way users will be able to install only the utilities they want. To understand better what I mean take a look at the following links from archlinux and gentoo.
http://kdemod.ath.cx/features.html
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/kde-split-ebuilds.xml
One more thing is that KDE menus have the same programs in more than one categories. Not a very good way to organize your pc. There are a lot of entries that show up in the Administration, System, and Settings menus.
I don't know how difficult or easy would be to spli the kde packages but I believe it would be a good idea. Maybe this could be done if not for KDE3 for KDE4 which is a few months away.
What do you think?
Regards,
axel

Rebuild sysprof-kmod for final kernel
by Gianluca Sforna
I tried to rebuild sysprof-kmod for the f8 release, but it failed with:
Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files
/var/tmp/sysprof-kmod-1.0.8-1.2.6.23.1_41.fc8-root-kojibuilder

These was not created before, so I'm not sure if they have to be
packaged, removed, ghosted or...
The build log is here:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=220489&name=build.log
and yes, I know -41 was not _the_ one...
any help appreciated.

rose[0-9] interfaces?
by Warren Togami
Huh? I resumed from hibernate with kernel-2.6.23.1-42.fc8.x86_64 and I
noticed these bogus looking devices in iwconfig, ifconfig, and kernel
module rose loaded. Any idea what might have loaded this module, or
what it is?
