Re: changes to base-x comps group
Bill Nottingham (nott...@redhat.com) said: (Attempting to CC relevant spins/groups maintainers) I'm looking to do some rework of the base-x comps group. Right now, its main purpose in life is to provide the X server that is used by the various desktops (and the window-managers group, I suppose). However, given that, it has stuff in it that it really shouldn't - configuration tools, applets, session services, and so on. Attached is a patch series that attempts to remove this cruft from the base-x group, and place it, where relevant, in the appropriate desktop groups. (At least, the cruft that was on by default - I haven't attempted to weed out the optional packages yet.) Thanks for the comments... merged now.

In many cases, these tools/apps were getting removed/disabled by the live spins anyway. Looks ok here from a quick glance. I welcome base-x being base x. :) I think we should be able to fix up anything that breaks from this without too much trouble. kevin signature.asc Description: PGP signature -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Looks sane from the Sugar/MeeGo side of things, and is very much appreciated as its been on my todo list for a long time.
