This may have something to do with things, not sure. If that is a significant cause of the slowdowns, we can partially alleviate the problem, by changing all %post snippets from for S in "<list of schemas here>"; do gconftool-2 --make-install-rule $S done to gconftool-2 --make-install-rule <list of schemas here> --Ray -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
