It's been through the build system and successfully built, so it's waiting to be signed - which for security reasons is a manual process (and should remain so) but that usually happens within 24 hours of building. The problem with building libvisual-plugins is not a KDE issue, the makefile neglected to specify -mmmx to the CFLAGS which gcc4 is picky about (libvisual-plugins is not a KDE app) - one of the plugins just doesn't build with gcc4 (I haven't tried to patch it, don't really care to to be honest) and some of them build but cause bad crashes when selected (at least in totem via libvisual gstreamer plugin). Additionally there was an rpath issue that apparently was causing x86_64 issues. But it is built now and should be available *very* soon. -=- As far as krecipe - I don't know about krecipe. I wish I could help in that respect, but I really know very little about KDE. It is possible that Fedora/RH has patched gcc4 to deal with the KDE issues, is there a configure switch to tell it to ignore compiler blacklist? If not, that imho is a bug with KDE - they should allow a blacklist ignore option if they are going to blacklist a compiler. Hopefully a KDE user reading this list who knows how to deal with it will step up and contribute it to Fedora Extras.
