Not by Mandriva but by russian company RosaLabs. And it is not
upstreamed.

After some double checking, I found out that Mandriva had them developed by the ROSA Laboratories (http://www.rosalab.ru/). Their ROSA desktop contains the StackFolder, Rocketbar, SimpleWelcome, TimeFrame and enhancements to Dolphin and KDM. I tried to see if there was a tarball that could be downloaded, but the only thing they offer is a LiveCD. Looking at the Mandriva Source RPM's, it seems that it is GPL based, but should we really go that way that we are taking the Mandriva sources and then start offering it for openSUSE ? What I could imagine is that we make a separate package, call it ROSA-desktop and that package would then contain the desktoptheme, RocketBar, SimpleWelcome and Timeframe.

Why do you want to put everything into a single package? Even in Mandriva at least the theme is in its own package. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Well, I guess it is a matter of taste. I am not personally a big fan of splitting packages so atomically. In some cases, other distros tend to overdo that a bit. IMO YYMV.

Yep. Maybe something like a ROSA-extension for KDE would be nice. But what let you don´t install the mandriva packages? -- send from my notebook ***************** Linux is userfriendly.

I tried to built it with OBS, but it failed because it needs a library that isn´t there. :-( Maybe I will try later again. thanks, -- send from my notebook ***************** Linux is userfriendly.

Hi, I already have the spec-files adjusted so that they can build on OBS. As soon as I have finished with them, I will place them in KDE:Extra. It would be better to have them compiling on OBS, so that they are using the correct libraries coming with the openSUSE distro. This way they will be available for 11.3, 11.4 and Factory. Also for KR46, KR47 and KDF. Raymond -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Well, thank you!
