There's a bit of a problem, though - it doesn't build against F17. F17 has parted 3.0. Rawhide has parted 3.1. parted 3.1 restored some bits of API that 3.0 removed, and that qtparted uses. So it can build against 3.1, but not 3.0. I don't have a Rawhide install handy. I just tried upgrading a VM to Rawhide but I can't get X to run on it at all. So I can't test the build, because I can't run Rawhide and I can't build qtparted in a way that'll work on F17 so I can test it there. So reluctantly I've pushed the build through to Rawhide blind. If anyone has a functioning Rawhide install and can test it, I'd really appreciate it. Particularly I'd like to know if the usermode stuff works - i.e. if you try and run it as a regular user, does it prompt for root password and correctly run as root? Also is it still _necessary_ - if you bypass the usermode stuff and run qtparted directly as a regular user (just call /usr/sbin/qtparted directly), does it handle privilege escalation on its own when necessary? If so, we can drop the usermode guff. Aside from that, just the usual 'does it actually run/work' smoke test. thanks! (I don't know if it'd make sense to bump parted to 3.1 in F17. Probably not.) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
