Dan,

I've successfully compiled Heartbeat on RHEL5, and the following packages in 
yum were needed to satisfy dependencies: glib2-devel, pkgconfig, libxml2-devel, 
bzip2-devel, gcc, gcc-c++

The big deal, however, was that I needed to install libnet, which isn't part of 
yum - I had to get it from rpmfind.net and install it manually.  Last time I 
did a RHEL install of Heartbeat, I grabbed libnet-1.1.2.1-2.2.el5.rf.i386.rpm 
(which'll be i386 or x86_64 depending on your architecture).

Once I installed those packages, installed the libnet RPM, and created the 
necessary haclient and hacluster users, I was able to compile and install 
Heartbeat (./ConfigureMe install) with no problems.  This worked with RHEL 5.0 
and RHEL 5.1.

Subject: [Linux-HA] Installation problems

I am having problems installing heartbeat HA on RHEL5. Any suggestions, rpms, 
compile instructions are desireable. I don't care if I have to compile it or 
install it via rpms, I just need a method that works. I know it can be done, as 
I struggled through it last year on a proof of concept and eventually got it 
done, but I am not able to replicate it. And I have a wonderful co-worker who 
believes strongly in deleting his co-workers work.

The best information I found is install Pils, then stonith, the HA itself then 
GUI. But the dependancies are killing me
I have read all the documentation I can find, and found and understand much of 
the  configuration information. But I find minimal and incomplete installation 
information if the rpm installs don't work right out of the box.
The main problem is dependancies. If I find the package for the depenencies, 
and I install it. It doesn't seem to always solve the HA's rpm's need (the 
depenancy is too new?)
 
If anyone has some good notes for the install, some good notes on what the 
dependancies are and where to get them. That is what I need.
I promise to take good notes and post them after I am done.
Thanks in advance,Dan
