Re: [Ganglia-developers] [Ganglia-general] Ganglia 3.1.7 ready for testing
For CentOS 5 (RHEL5), there is a build dependancy package expat-devel, which is not properly set in the .spec file. There is only a libexpat-devel BuildReq for SuSe in the .spec file. On CentOS 5 this package is called expat-devel. Furthermore the expat buildreq seems unnecessary. I wrote a little patch to replace the expat req with expat-devel, for non-suse versions. - Ramon.
