I don't like the use of the EPEL name here http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:development:nightly-builds#nightly_builds... as I think it is causing confusion between the X2Go packages provided by the X2Go project and those provided by the actual Fedora EPEL project.
I propose changing EPEL to RHEL in that section.

I agree that this sounds misleading.
However, don't those builds depend on certain packages in EPEL?
If so, then have language like:
These packages require some packages from the Fedora EPEL repo, as well as replaces the versions of the X2Go packages from Fedora EPEL.
But I really want it clear that there are Fedora EPEL X2Go packages and there are X2Go provided packages for EL, and they are different.

Hi Orion,

the X2Go packages we build against RHEL+EPEL indeed depend on EPEL.
For RHEL5+6 they don't work with vanilla RHEL (not tested, but we
depend on quite some recent third-party software with some packages).
Can you please fix the corresponding page on the wiki yourself? I am
fine with those changes and they will provide more clarity.
Please also add the information, that distro-native packages are also
available and that they should be preferred. The EPEL/Fedora packaging
we do (from my side) mainly focuses on development snapshots for those
distros and for short-cutting review/packaging cycles in the official
distro archives.
You may also add such similar information to [2] (?).
Thanks+Greets, Mike

If you want to change the language of [1] and [2] above to change the emphasis to using the distribution/EPEL provided packages I'll let you do that.
