icu requires quite a large number of rebuilds, including some tricky ones (I just did tracker, which has to be bootstrapped, and libreoffice is another...), so I think it's reasonable to assume the icu maintainer isn't going to be doing them all, and help out with the rest. gnustep is being a PITA now. le sigh. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
