[Sugar-devel] [PATCH Browse] Allow 'Up' key in the drop-down list of suggested pages SL #3473

[Martin Langhoff]

If you're on F16, wanting to build for F17, use the mockbuild option. It'll
take some time the first time to build a chroot (mock is similar to
debootstrap).

Now, this is ok for testing. For our actual builds, get in touch with Peter
Robinson, as we really try to avoid carrying patches (so we push to get the
patch upstream, hard). If we fail to get the patch in Fedora (and that'
Peter's expertise) we'll need the package built for our 2 architectures,
and there's a number of important details to be careful about.

Looping Peter in. Manuel, for Peter's info, is the patch already in the
upstream pygobject repo? In their master or their stable branch? Is there a
bug in the upstream bugtracker that explains the bug, or a mailing list
thread? Anything that gives Peter good reason to have it included in the
Fedora RPM is useful.
