First, about flash : there are known issues (flash will crash mozilla if using exported DISPLAY, mozilla will hang if audio card is already used => must run mozilla through soundwrapper..)

Since Evolution and others GNOME applications are already using those libraries and I didn't get any bug reports, I don't think there is a problem there.. First, you should check that Mdk packages work correctly.. (ie gnome spell is working correctly in Mdk Evolution package).. Then, if you compile from CVS, you should compile all relevent modules from CVS (ie gnome-spell, gtkhtml, gal and evolution)..

Compare dependencies in your generated package with dependencies from official cooker mandrake.. This should help..

I'm in vacations but I can respond :)) GNOME 2 libraries are parallel installable against GNOME 1.4 librairies => you can still use GNOME 1 applications in GNOME 2 environments (ie evolution, ...) GNOME 2 core applications (nautilus, gnome-panel, ...) are not parallel installable (by design) and I will not use different prefix than /usr. Why ? Because this is cooker :)) You want to live at the bleeding edge ? Then go ;) Seriously, this would add too much work for almost no real pro.

There is a difference between packager and maintainer :
-Maintainer is the guy who is in charge of day to day package
maintainance (bug fix, new version, ...)
-Packager is the last guy who built the package. If I rebuild package I
don't maintain (sometimes, it is needed because the maintainer is too
busy or we need to fix a lot of package at the same time), my name will
be put in the packager tag and some people might think I'm the maintainer
of the package (it happened with Mdk 8.0 for me with Samba because I
fixed menu entry for swat !!).
It wouldn't be a problem if people (very often, newbies) weren't sending
mail for tech support directly to packagers (or maintainers..)
That is why I'm (and a lot of people at MandrakeSoft) using the
"MandrakeExpert" tag => to redirect users to mandrakeexpert.com for tech
support. This is really needed for released version of the distro)
For cooker, the best thing is often to post on cooker mailing list.
Info is not restricted between Mdksoft guy and the guy sending
mail and it might help other people (or other people might be able to
respond to initial mail..)
Since cooker traffic is quite high, some mails might not be read by the
right MdkSoft guy (I confess, I usually don't read long OT threads or
install related threads..)..
To reduce this problem, I think people should try to split their mails by
package/topic (if in an install report, there is stuff about GNOME not starting,
chance are high it might be missed) and to put really good topics for
their messages.
Here is an example (inspired from a bug I received this week .. At first,
I thought it was already fixed but it was indeed a real bug ;)
bad topic : icons are not active on my desktop
good topic : [GNOME] desktop icons not working
or for gnome power users : [Nautilus] desktop icons not working
A good rule of thumb would be to put package name at the beginning of
topic..

If you were reading the result of the rpmfind query, you'll see that the ximian package is a GNOME 2 snapshot. It has nothing to do with Mandrake ! And if you are following GNOME2 development, you can see that the entire GNOME2 platform will no longer have big metapackage like gnome-core and so on.. So, it seems GNOME community is moving to a "libification like process".. We only began to work on that before others.. Our GNOME packages are compatible with RedHat package at the binary level.. They have never been supposed to be compatible at the source level.. Same thing between distro version : an old distro package should compile on a newer distro... > Old packages?

Yes, I continue to say old package.. Ximian is still 8.1 only compatible so when you said you want "Ximian compatibility", in fact, you ask for 8.1 compatibility.. GNOME dependencies/requires/provides are correct in cooker.. If you have a problem with xmms, see with xmms maintainer.. There is nothing wrong with GNOME packages..

It is very strange.. If I resume what you say : either under GNOME or KDE, when using wheel, gtk+ scrollbar applications crashes, even with no GTK+ theme.. Could you try : -check if imwheel is running. If it is, kill it and try again. -create a new account and try to reproduce the problem -try to remove imported window fonts which might have been added by drakfont.. -Downgrade to libgtk+1.2 from 8.1 (using rpm --oldpackage option) to see if this is an regression between gtk+ from 8.1 and cooker version. -- Frédéric Crozat MandrakeSoft

It is very strange.. Never seens that.. You should try to reinstall XFree86-libs and sawfish packages, they might be corrupted..

Strange, I never seen such a bug report.. check if there is any error in ~/.xsession-errors Try removing your ~/.sawfish directory
