I was going to build a Tuxtype2 rpm for someone who asked for it on IRC 
but that was on Sunday and I haven't yet had the time. Its a small RPM, 
I could have built it then but I didn't have the developer tools 
installed before, and, after installing some via apt the configure 
script was complaining that G++ wouldn't generate executables. By the 
time Monday rolled around I was busy with school work again and didn't 
have the time to work on the RPM.

I don't have much of a spec file yet so there is no point in mailing it, 
I doubt I'll have time to make the RPM before Thursday night which is 
the last day before a long week off so if anyone has some spare time and 
wants to build the package that would be nice. The url is 
http://tuxtype.sf.net and the person requesting the package wanted 
either the CVS version or 1.5.3.

Thanks everyone, especially for your patience, I'm really more of a 
programmer than I am a packager but I'm not very familiar with the 
developer tools in Linux at all and I haven't had time to really become 
proficient with the Qt libs. Perhaps I would be better off writing a few 
tools in C++ with Qt and after having them checked over by a more 
experienced dev, they could then be added on to the Ark control centre. 
I've had some ideas for extra control centre modules that I would 
consider important essentials for newbies such as an easy graphical 
editor to the fstab file.
