[Sugar-devel] A query regarding building "sugar-artwork" rpm.

[Ajay Garg]

Any ideas anyone, please?

I would recommend once reviewing the patch present at
http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/attachments/20120816/7da4caa5/attachment.obj

which by the way, works perfectly in dx3 (in the sense that newly added
files ARE included).


Thanks and Regards,
Ajay
