Hi Alberts,

1st, I just noticed your instructions here.
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-flashback-list/2014-August/msg00006.html

It is outdated now...

1. wip branches does not exist now.

2. it is enough to add this as modules ['meta-gnome-core', 'meta-gnome-flashback']

3. --session=gnome-flashback-metacity or --session-gnome-flashback-compiz

2nd, There is /usr/include/cpufreq.h installed. As someone who is used
to dpkg packaging, this seems weird.  "yum provides
/usr/include/cpufreq.h" states that it is installed by both
"kernel-headers" and "kernel-tools-libs-devel".

Also, "yum provides *libcpufreq*" seems to state that nothing provides
a file like /usr/lib/libcpufreq.so.0 or /usr/lib/libcpufreq.so , which
are present on Ubuntu.

Perhaps Fedora uses some other subsystem? I found this patch for
cpupower for mate-applets.

Updated master branch. Now you can use --with-cpufreq-lib=cpupower. In jhbuild:

module_autogenargs['gnome-applets'] = '--with-cpufreq-lib=cpupower'

Default is not changed!
