It would probably be good if glogg was available as packages for the RedHat family of distributions, as it is on Debian, Ubuntu, Arch and OpenSUSE. So if any Fedora (or other RedHat distro) user is keen on creating and maintaining the RPM packages, please post to the mailing list and they will be added to this website.
