I thought that here we were talking about packages which were not in fc3's extras but were recently dropped from rawhide with an understanding that they are (basically?) going to extras so this is something quite a bit different to merge. Number of these packages had various amounts of work done while in rawhide. Bugs were reported and fixed and so on. Sure, some may need rebuilding but you do not suggest, I hope, that all this work has to be restarted from scratch? In particular abiword as it was fairly recently in rawhide was not the same one as that from FC3 (and surely it is not in extras there). Moreover ooffice not only does not know how to open abiword "native" files but it also cannot handle other formats, like WordPerfect and various RTF, which are not a problem for abiword. Michal
