Hi, I packaged up italc for Fedora, the review waiting for a reviewer is here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=459065 I think italc is a nice addition to any k12/ltsp/edu spin used in classrooms (as opposed to single user oriented edu spins). There are some nice patches by Ubuntu made to make italc blend better into an LTSP framework using avahi for autodetection and similar niceties, but I'd like to stay closer to upstream at least with the first package iteration. Upstream seems also to nicely accept patches, so most probably some kind of autodetection will make it into one of the next releases. If you want to test the bits w/o rebuilding yourself (but the build is really harmless), then the binary packages can be found at ATrpms: http://atrpms.net/name/italc/ There is even a RHEL5 binary package, if you need it. But I'd prefer if you would rebuild yourself, rpmlint it, shake it well, ponder the Fedora packaging/review guidelines on it and stamp an approval for it making it into Fedora :) (requires you to be a reviewer in Fedora, but most of us probably are) I saw that there was also another italc packaging suggestion based on a SuSE package made some weeks ago, I had a look at the specfile in case there was something to use for Fedora, but SuSE and Fedora are really quite different in their packaging style. :( -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
