That means: You can enable RPM Fusion in Anaconda during installation of Fedora 10 with anaconda and everything will "Just Work" (TM).

I updated (read: reworked and renamed) the page in the wiki that describes how to use RPM Fusion during Install:
http://rpmfusion.org/EnablingRpmFusionDuringFedoraInstall

HEADS UP to all packagers: For this to work properly you must make sure all the *binary* packages a user might want to (de)select in anaconda are listed in one of groups in our comps.xml files.


So *pretty please*, please look at this URLs:

http://cvs.rpmfusion.org/viewvc/comps/comps-f10.xml.in?root=free&view=markup
http://cvs.rpmfusion.org/viewvc/comps/comps-f10.xml.in?root=nonfree&view=markup

Are all the interesting binary rpms that get build from the packages you maintain listed there? If not please consider to add them; the comps directory can be found in the root of the free and nonfree directories in CVS; they will get pushed to the repo with the next push.


Further: Please make sure that all the packages that a user will likely want by default are listed as such in those groups where it makes sense.

Examples: Right now gnome-mplayer, gstreamer-plugins-ugly and gstreamer-ffmpeg are marked as default for all users that have the GNOME group selected (that is the default). People that disable GNOME and enable KDE will get amarok-extras-freeworld and k3b-extras-freeworld by default (do they also want the gstreamer stuff these days?).

/me wonders if xine-lib-extras-freeworld should be marked as default for GNOME, KDE or in general as well

Hints how to use comps.xml can be found at:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/CompsXml

If you are unsure if, where or how your packages should get listed please ask for advice on the list or on IRC.


And another note: Please also check the comps.xml for saneness. I suppose there are some old packages still in the current file that were dropped over the past few months. tia!
