Hi

After testing the xsce install on fedora 20 x86_64, I found the following
issues:

- cronie package doesn't have a "Provides:" field for vixie-cron, so some
packages can't be installed (moodle-xs and ds-backup-server). I used a
quick workarround, adding a "Provides" field to xsce-server.spec, building
the rpm and installing it.

- syck-python isn't build for fedora20. I created a patched rpm that builds
with bison >= 2.7 , and is avaliable at
http://xsce.activitycentral.com/repos/fc20/


So, for installing xsce 5.0 on fedora20, follow this steps:

yum install -y git ansible rpm-build
git clone https://github.com/scollazo/xsce.git
cd xsce
git checkout feature-fc20
rpmbuild -ba xsce-server.spec
yum localinstall /root/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/...
./runansible

In the near future, we will need to rebuild moodle-xs and ds-backup-server
,and change the dependency on vixie-cron to avoid the first issue.
