thanks,

already read up in the list that they are harmless packaging
issues.
wanted to mention them here in the test-list, so others
know "they are not alone" and it's not only their test-system's fault.
reports from others helped me a *lot* in the past for testing daily
rawhide cuts, and deciding what to exclude.

of course i usually answer in the test-list and not in the devel-list,
but the rawhide reports are distributed to both now (which is nice imho).


btw.
fixed the only "real" two update-errors gnome-applets and gconf-editor,
with "rpm -e --noscripts" and a 2nd --forced
update on them. (had them installed two times)
now all plays nice again.


best
Lars
