On RHEL 4 the frysk.rpm first builds and then installs into /usr/lib/frysk newer but unsupported gnome and other libraries that are prereq's to building frysk. Consequently, for someone building CVS frysk from scratch, the recommended approach is to first install the frysk.rpm (getting the prereq's for free :-) and then build frysk. -- http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4345 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
