Hi, The KDE Software Compilation 4.4.0 and related updates are now queued and should hit updates-testing in the next push. See: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/kpilot (This works because kpilot has been split out to a separate package as it is no longer part of kdepim in 4.4, it was previously part of kdepim, so the only updates including a separate kpilot package are the F11 and F12 versions of this update set.) Details: This update group updates: * the KDE Software Compilation (KDE SC) to 4.4.0 Major new technologies have been introduced, including social networking and online collaboration features, a new netbook-oriented interface and infrastructural innovations such as the KAuth authentication framework. According to KDE's bug-tracking system, 7293 bugs have been fixed and 1433 new feature requests were implemented.

The kdemultimedia package includes a preview of the new KMix PulseAudio integration: http://colin.guthr.ie/2010/01/mix-it-up/ http://colin.guthr.ie/2010/01/mix-it-some-more/ which is disabled by default. It can be enabled by commenting out the contents of the /etc/profile.d/kmix_pulseaudio_disable.sh and /etc/profile.d/kmix_pulseaudio_disable.csh files. This feature will be enabled by default in Fedora 13. Bugs Fixed: 519299 - Oxygen theme doesn't render in compiz with kde 4.3 557530 - Ghost applications in task manager Kevin Kofler _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde(a)lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org

I have never liked making changes to files installed by rpm unless they are configuration files because they don't always behave right after updates.

Very true. It still means if anything more changes i have to start checking rpmnew files. I personally have full admin rights but not everybody has so knowing it is easy to make the config change per user is useful knowledge. Commenting out that script also doesn't help if most users on the system should stick to the default but just individuals want to switch to the pulseaudio integration. Either way i am not saying it was done wrongly. Only that an alternative less intrusive way exists for those who want it.
