Use Fedora's yum utility.
Heres what I did:
1. vi /etc/yum.repos.d/nrpms and add this to the file
--snip

--snip--
2. vi /etc/yum.repos.d/nrpms-mono.repo and add this to the file:
--snip--
[nr-mono]

3. Update your system with
# yum update
4. Install mono with
# yum install mono
5. Install other packages from the repository using
# yum install <package-name>
6. Have fun :)
Hope this helps, though we still need to figure out how to get mod_mono working!

Thanks for the link. I downloaded libgdiplus-1.1.8-1.1.fc4.nr.src.rpm and
tried to install it with: rpm -ivh but it didn't seem to work. If I query
with rpm -q it reports that libgdiplus-1.1.8-1.1.fc4.nr.src.rpm is not
installed.
rpm -q also shows both mono and mcs as not installed, even though I
installed from svn and I can run applications under mono (apart from Windows
Forms apps which need libgdiplus).
I'm very new to all of this (a bit confused to put it mildly).
Pete.

No mod_mono (yet?)
mono source code might have to be altered to compile with
gcc-4, I have a feeling those packages aren't compiled with
gcc-4, though they work on my machine.
HTH,

I compiled freetype-2.1.10 from source (but yum shows that

2.1.9-2 and freetype-devel 2.1.9-2 are installed, so I guess it was

when trying
to build libgdiplus-1.1.8. The output from configuring
libgdiplus still shows:

Cairo will be compiled with the following suftace backends:

And the following font backends:
freetype: no

And make still fails with the 'CAIRO_FONT_BACKEND_DEFAULT' error.
Is there something else I need to do for the libgdiplus
build process
to "see" the freetype lib?
Thanks
Pete.

You need freetype on your system. Either compile from source or
install the freetype-devel package.

I am having trouble installing libgdiplus. I have tried both the
go-mono download and svn but I get the same error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] libgdiplus]# ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local/ ...
cairo will be compiled with the following surface backends:
Xlib: yes
Quartz: no
XCB: no (requires XCB http://freedesktop.org/software/xcb)
PostScript: yes
PDF: no
PNG: no (requires libpng http://www.libpng.org)
glitz: no (requires glitz http://freedesktop.org/software/glitz)
and the following font backends:
freetype: no
atsui: no
---
Configuration summary
* Installation prefix = /usr/local/
* Codecs supported:
- TIFF: yes
- JPEG: yes
- GIF: yes
- PNG: yes
NOTE: if any of the above say 'no' you may install the
corresponding development packages for them, rerun
autogen.sh to include them in the build.

Now type `make' to compile
[EMAIL PROTECTED] libgdiplus]# make
