So there ;)
There's a bug in IL that is causing compilation issues in Fedora 10 -- those where fixed few weeks ago in upstream. When those fixes emerge, i'll push my love to fedora repos if possible.

Yes, but unlikely for 0.6.0.

Heya Rude, any chance that love.graphics.screenshot() will be fixed in 0.6.0? It sure would be handy (to me at least...)

Note how "More than I can chew" is exactly five times larger than what I can chew, and LÖVE 0.6.0 is already three times larger than that again.

The problem with fixing love.graphics.screenshot next release is that it would probably push "Next version" up to at least 1,6 or maybe 1,7 blarghs[1]. Instead, non-critical features such as this one should be put in one of the many post-0.6.0 "I can chew" releases (less or equal to 0,1 blargh).

[1] The process of saving a screenshot will actually involve three modules in the future: love.graphics for getting the raw pixel data, love.image for encoding it to a desireable format, and love.filesystem to save it. This is why it amounts to more blarghs than expected.

For what it's worth, the only thing I care about in Love 0.6.0 is getting the physics engine fixed so that the units / pixels measurement system works correctly.

That's a deal-breaker for me right there. The rest is pretty much... *shrug* It honestly doesn't matter that much, to me.
