Hmmm, I managed to get it built in my build infrastructure from the 
latest .src.rpm - no problems (it seems to be using deprecated G* calls 
that are flagged as warnings by the compiler).

I have NOT tested the results but I pushed it anyway to the Planet CCRMA 
repositories. Let me know if it does not work so I can remove it (I 
don´t have a fc35 system right now).

Enjoy!

[*] some very nice packages in the list below, let me know if something 
else is obviously missing...
