Hey nerds, here's the list of source and binary packages that are somehow related to the Astronomy SIG and which will be used as a base for the Astronomy spin. Please note the "L" letter near the binary package name. It means that the package is listed in the Astronomy spin kickstart file. If it isn't, it might still be dragged to the the media as a dependency (*-libs packages). The package might be excluded due size constraints (some *-doc packages), the size information is included in the list as well. There might still be packages missing, and that's the exact purpose of this mail -- if you feel that package that you use or want on the media is missing, please yell aloud! Astronomy spin is in works now. It certainly won't make it to the beta along with Everything spin, yet the collection of the packages seems usable enough. We have more than enough to fit on the live media :) Information about bugs open against Astronomy packages is included as well. Nothing serious there though. Finally -- if you spot errors in the Summaries of the packages, they may be already fixed, this list was generated against dist-rawhide which targets Beta and was frozen some time ago. accrete [ L] accrete [Accrete is a physical simulation of solar system planet formation] (size 15243) astronomy-bookmarks [ L] astronomy-bookmarks [Fedora astronomy bookmarks] (size 3696) #480513 [NEW] typo in astronomy's bookmarks.html (Marek Mahut) boinc-client [ ] boinc-client-devel [Development files for boinc-client] (size 393189) [DL] boinc-manager [GUI to control and monitor boinc-client] (size 1787933) [ L] boinc-client [The BOINC client core] (size 1011345) #469476 [ASSIGNED] boinc_client fails to have network connectivity after reboot (Milos Jakubicek) #477882 [ASSIGNED] boincmgr attach to project screen is unuseable.
