One is memory usage; last time I looked Pirut used well over 100MB of system memory while doing nothing. I am unable to see if that's improved at the moment because Pirut now crashes with a backtrace on startup (not straight away, it chews up 50MB of system memory first). I strongly agree with Erwin that including this as it is in the final FC5 release could be damaging to Fedora's image. If all the bugs and UI "nits" are patched up before the final release, then I'm sure it will be great. Otherwise, I think we should leave it to FC6 and if necessary include no graphical package manager. My two cents, n0dalus. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
