As I suspected, your problem is that FC4 comes with gcc-4.x. The 4.x release of gcc imposes ultra-strict type checking. Lots of gEDA programs have trivial, insignificant type violations which unfortunatly prevent gcc-4.x from compiling them. This is bad news for everybody: gEDA users and developers alike. For you, your best bet is to wipe your system clean and install FC3, unless you have a specific reason to use FC4. Then try to run the CD again. Alternately, if you are an 31337 haxor, you can remove gcc-4, and get gcc-3.X running on your system. This might be extremely difficult. As for us gEDA developers, this is a wake-up call: We need to clean up our code so that it is clean enough to compile under gcc-4.x. Stuart
