   * [[spyder]] (integrated development environment for python) has some incompatible preferences. if you have used it in earlier fedora versions, you should probably get rid of the ''.spyder2'' and ''.spyder3'' directories in your home before starting the new version.   * [[spyder]] (integrated development environment for python) has some incompatible preferences. if you have used it in earlier fedora versions, you should probably get rid of the ''.spyder2'' and ''.spyder3'' directories in your home before starting the new version.
 +  * <del>Printing: the ''lp'' and ''lpr'' programs (and related utilities such as ''lpstat'') don't seem to use the environment variables ''$PRINTER'' and ''$LPDEST'' any more; a per-user default can be set using the command ''lpoptions -d printername'' or by editing ''$HOME/.cups/lpoptions''. This file is now created automatically for all users, storing the current value of ''$PRINTER'', but you may have to change this if you want another default printer. We have also set a per-computer default, usually the closest printer to the computer. \\ Alternatively, specify the printer on the commandline (e.g. ''lpr -Php5 file.ps'').

 +  * Gnome doesn't display //notification area// aka //system tray// icons any more by default. The fix is, to enable  the ''topicons plus'' extension: open ''gnome-tweak-tool'', and go to ''extensions'' to do that. After that, the icons such as status icons of dropbox, skype etc, will be in your top panel.
