What software is missing in the Fedora repository?

by Rahul Sundaram

Hi, I am doing a quick survey for software that you use on a regular basis that is not available via the Fedora repository. Software that you suggest should be free and open source, free of patent and other legal issues. Tell me the home page of the software and give me a brief description on what it does. Bonus points if you can see in Google for "software-name fedora package review" to figure it if it is already in the Fedora package review queue. If you know of RPM packages in other distributions for the software your are suggesting, that information is useful as well. Rahul

Testing required for menumaker RPM

by Gireesh Sreekantan

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi All, In follow up to this thread[1], I have managed to create a RPM for menumaker[2]. The rpm and the spec file can be found here[3]. If anyone is interested, couple of harmless commands to try out: $mmaker fluxbox -c|less $info mmaker (the source doesn't a provide a man page) This being my *first ever* rpm package, I don't expect it to be 100% correct. I would gladly welcome feedback. [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/fedora-india@redhat.com/msg01432.html [2] http://menumaker.sourceforge.net [3] http://gsreekantan.fedorapeople.org/ Note: works fine on F10. On F11, some of the commands throw harmless(IMHO) python deprecation warnings. I suspect these are due to the move to python 2.6. - -- Gireesh Sreekantan -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkoi3DoACgkQji0bnveIaEajAwCfcOEoRZp2z3W7gWyJ2SIXPRt1 ML0Amwbt7FzgGKnqtxpfm8Uyhl30v0Yo =+nxR -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

We want to identify the small (and sometimes large) roadblocks that make everyday computer use harder than it needs to be, and try to fix them." Rahul
