If that does not suit you, I recommend you build fvwm from the sources and do not use the rpm. There was so much confusion about the naming of the various fvwm releases in the past. I am very reluctant to start over with this. Nowadays, fvwm release 2.x is simply called "fvwm" throughout the documentation and the plan is to keep it this way. There are only two places where the "2" still shows up: in the name of the executable and the name of the config file.
