Thanks. [Aside: for info: the "real" source of "heartbeat.spec" is its autotools source: "heartbeat.spec.in"] 1. Redhat pre-reqs: I'm not qualified to speak about this. For local use, some of those fall into the "preferred but not essential" category. Both sides of the case could be argued! 2. "--disable-fatal-warnings": Within heartbeat development, we try specifically to treat compiler warnings as potential errors (lurking bugs). From that vantage point, the real problem is whatever it was caused your compiler warning. With an FC5 build late last week, I've already uncovered one warning (becomes an error): "lib/lrm/clientlib.c" (which I emailed to this group at the time, and for which I'm about to propose a fix). I'm on my way to uncovering more. FC5 is new. You're almost certainly one of the first folk trying to build heartbeat on it. It seems to induce more compiler warnings. This is potentially a "Good Thing", in that it might be uncovering latent code bugs (for instance, that "lib/lrm/clientlib.c" seems to be just such). Thanks again.
