I installed Pan from Dominique's GitLab on a minimally customized Fedora
41 Workstation installed on a virgin SSD in a system I don't use very
much. This is mostly just a list of the commands I entered as I thrashed
about trying to get all the right stuff installed to make Pan build.
Some of the 'dnf list | grep -i <packagename>' spasms have been omitted
but I left in some of the errors and responses. Note that I am not a
coder (which should be obvious) but I have been using Pan since before
Charles Kerr descended from the heavens to rescue it. My primary claim
to fame is that I declared Duncan to be the Instutuional Memory of the
project ;-)

All the above configuration was done via ssh, but afterward I fired up
strumpet's monitor and verified that the KDE Plasma Application Launcher
had correctly entered the Pan desktop in the Internet grouping and that
Pan loaded correctly on first attempt. I did not configure servers
because it all looks fine operationally. The bold font is hideous but
that is probably a GTK issue or some other thing I don't understand.

I'm tweaking two new (to me) PCs -- a job I haven't done in years.
Both are running Fedora 41 Mate. I've gotten the programs installed that
I depend on most -- EXCEPT Pan itself. (It's running on a third PC.)
