I seem to have pissed Warren off with this reply, so I just wanted to make sure that no one else misinterpreted my reply. What I was attempting to do was confirm what Warren had said in his original post (and direct in response to Kai's comment that the spec file works fine for him with CentOS), that the spec file included with the tar.gz distribution does not build and install without issue on Fedora 12, but that Warren's RPM build *does* install cleanly and without issue on Fedora 12. My apologies if this was not understood in my previous post. Bill
