I have a similar question about the name of gnome-applets, in my case (#168032) it's gnome-timer-applet vs. gnome-applet timer. The upstream package ist called timer-applet, I think we need at least gnome as prefix. But I'm still unsure, whether to name the package applet-foo or foo-applet :/ On the hand there are: * gnome-applets * gnome-applet-netspeed * gnome-applet-rhythmbox * gnome-applet-sensors and on the other: * contact-lookup-applet * deskbar-applet * lock-keys-applet * glunarclock (no prefix at all) Any ideas and comments? > ~spot Christoph -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
