Hallo
after the upgade of my F11 to kde 4.3 my dolphin info panel lost most of the infos it showed in kde 4.2. After some mails on the kde list and searches in the net (and not being able to get strigi running) I decided to install soprano sesame backend which is not available from fedora (In a fedora bugreport i read something about binary only part or similar - is it solved?). I downloaded the src rpm from rex' fedorapeople site, compiled and installed it and after a relogin strigi started to run.
Now I can see additional infos in the info sidebar of dolphin. The question is: Is sesame needed to get strigi running? I heard it is much faster than redland tools, are there any chances to get the sesame package available from fedora repo?

It's not in fedora because Sesame cannot currently be rebuilt properly from source, as is required by fedora policy.
Sadly, soprano/nepomuk is largely useless without it. :(

Now I'm really confused. I followed Martin's exploration of this on a kde list, and saw the dev tell him that he needed the sesame backend for strigi so that he could get the info he wanted on the Info panel in Dolphin.
My laptop doesn't have sesame as far as I know, rpm grepping finds redland but not sesame, strigi runs, and I get the info panel stuff that Martin wanted. What's giving the workaround, then?
