is there stuff in livna which isn't in dag/dries
hmm... will have to take a look
I haven't found much that I needed that wasn't in dag's repository. Only two items. Here's what I've found.
gtkpod - for iPods, obviously xine mplayer mplayer-plugin bittorrent gkrellm irssi - ncurses IRC client mozilla-flash xmms-mp3 centericq - ncurses Jabber client
pine, even (yes, I still sometimes use that)
Almost everything I've needed has been there. And that's a wide range of stuff.
The only thing I've installed from downloaded binaries has been Java stuff, jdk, eclipse, tomcat, etc. And I like to install that stuff manually anyway.
Other than that, he didn't have slrn and rioutil. So I had to install those from source. But that's it. And one could argue that slrn and rioutil aren't *that* widely used, perhaps.
You can contribute them at RPMforge :) The reason why at least slrn is not in my repository is because it comes with Fedora by default. But that didn't stop me for some other stuff evidently.
So I might add both if nobody else does.
