I think that will do what you want. (Note there isn't a 2.9x version of metacity, so you obsoleting that gets a lot trickier.) As long as gnome-panel-2.9x isn't packaged in F13 or F14 as an update this should work. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
