Comment(by godiard):

 I have compiled a Scratch rpm based in [1]. A few good news:

 * Squeak-vm packaged in fedora 18 (4.10.2.2614-2) now include the needed
 Scratch plugins [2], then we don't need include them in the Scratch
 activity (before we included the plugins compiled for every platform)

 * The Scratch rpm is no-arch, and basically works (and apparently faster
 than before). We can do a activity like with etoys where we have only a
 script calling the packaged scratch version.

 * Camera and sound works.

 Pending issues:

 * Need test options in the startup script.

 * Trying to save a project give me a error.

 * We lost the customization to show the journal in the options to save a
 job. May be there are a option to enable or we need patch it.

 These experimental rpms can be downloaded from [3]
