The following 30 packages, with respective FTBFS bugs, have been open since the Fedora 11 time frame, and continue to fail to build. These are the oldest non-building packages in the distribution, everything else (over 8800) managed to build for Fedora 12 or newer already. awn-extras-applets-0.3.2.1-8.fc11.src.rpm

I'd like to propose the above list be dropped from the distribution, prior to Fedora 13 Alpha freeze, unless the package is made to build in rawhide before that.
