Can somebody give a step by step explanation how to install JRiver in Fedora 23 KDE, please? I've tried to follow RemyJ's method for Fedora 17, but there are only hints for whoever knows how to start installing the program, already.
Thank you.

What steps are not clear in the OP? Download the experimental rpm build script, unzip, cd to SPECS, and run:


--- Code: ---./rpmbuild 21.0.48
--- End code ---

It will ask you to enter your root password to install the rpm package after it is built.

I finally setup a Fedora 24 virtual machine and installed MC using this script... it works great! :D

Basically if you're a new Fedora user and you're going to use this script, I recommend doing the following before using the script:

1. Install the rpm-build package, this is absolutely required for this to work or else you'll end up getting a build error.

2. While likely not required, I do suggest enabling RPM Fusion on your Fedora install (at least the free repo, nonfree is optional!) - it does indeed make life easier. :P

I did notice the script still specifies xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi, xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi, xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi, and xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi as requirements. As far as I know, MC 21 doesn't require these anymore (since the new font system landed months ago). I'm not currently sure if any other requirements that aren't required anymore, perhaps Bob can chime in?

True, it doesn't require the fixed fonts any more and those aren't in the .deb control file.
