The reason I have not packaged a new release of gnome is that the team at Red Hat labs has been providing daily rpms and cvs tar balls. Every day, Red Hat labs checks out the latest gnome sources out from the CVS tree, makes sure things compile and package nice RPMS for people to download and try the latest and greatest version of gnome. If you have not tried gnome, because you are afraid of compiling or you do not have disk space to compile, fear no more: you can get those pre-compiled packages *daily* and see gnome progress. Descriptions for this can be found on the web page (www.gnome.org). [And yes, if you want to provide daily .deb packages, you are welcomed to, just mail msf@redhat.com for setting this up]. best wishes, Miguel.

My machine can't afford the disk space of keeping the full source for all the modules locally, so I've been counting on those for the modules I don't need to touch/look at. However, as far as I can tell, the last 'daily' package came out May 2, and since then, the CVS Gimp upgraded a version of gtk+ and won't compile unless I come up with the new version, which isn't in RPM format, and I don't have the space to build it. Info would be useful, even if it's "don't count on the RPMs, that system's broken, get more disk space, you weenie you!" Thanx -Gleef

I expect we should have a full set of RPMs building by Monday, if not sooner. -Marc
