This isn't a matter of chosing between two equivalent options -- it's just trying to address the linked-with-GNOME thing. So it seems like the right thing to do is use a simple script that runs the big version if it's installed, and falls back to the svelte one otherwise. -- Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/> -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
