(this is not really neccessary now, since harald's tarball works, but out of interest / for future reference, it'd be nice to be able to build it myself) I'm using fedora, and doing a 'yum list available', I don't get anything called 'libgps', but I do see: gpsd.i386 2.34-3.fc7 development gpsd-clients.i386 2.34-3.fc7 development gpsd-devel.i386 2.34-3.fc7 development would this be the same thing with a different name, perchance? and again, forgive me if I'm a moron, but I'm not sure how to reconcile installing these packages with what it says on the toolchain wiki page under 'Installing additional libraries into the toolchain', the wiki page mentions doing: ./configure --host=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi --prefix=/usr/local/openmoko/arm/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr make make install but in my experience, things I install with yum are precompiled... would I install the -devel package with yum and then use 'rpm -ql' (list package files) to find the files I need? wouldn't I actually want to install a source package (probably named something like "gpsd-src")?
