Yes, I intend bringing LXDE to EPEL (if possible). menu-cache shouldn't be a
problem.

I think devel packages are different, they are not important to users. If
somebody installs the devel packages, he already knows what libfm is.

Why does it make a difference if the -gtk package depends on the base package?
It is not important in the context of the description. Is there a benefit if i
removed the first part of the description? "This package provides useful file
manager-related GTK+ widgets." would be a little sparse.

fixed.

fixed. I updated the spec last week just before my LXDE talk @ CLT and
obviously I was in a hurry and not very careful.

menu-cache is itself is not a blocker, I could push 0.3.2 also to F-12. However
I have no intentions to do this ATM because
- there were incompatible API changes from 0.3.0 to 0.3.1
- there was an soname bump from 0.3.1 to 0.3.2 to indicate the API changes
- only the new pcmanfm depends on libfm and I doubt you want to push a new
major version to a stable release.

It's on you to decide because you own pcmanfm. To me it is more important to
have pcmanfm 1.0 in F13. Currently I'm using pcmanfm 0.9.3 and it is very
stable. ATM it is still called pcmanfm2, so it can be installed in parallel to
the old pcmanfm. There already is a patch to rename it back to the original
name.

Should we push it to F13 and if so, under which name? I would prefer using
pcmanfm because the final version is scheduled for April. We could even go with
0.9.4 (beta 2) and update after release of F13. What do you think?
