Nothing to do It doesn't want to have anything to do with this package. I had another idea - taking the source rpm, modifying it to release 4.1, rebuilding it and doing a local install. That would work, only I'd need a fedora core 4 system to do the build. Problem: I only have fedora core 5, which when used as a build system causes the resulting binary package to be dependent on glibc 2.4, and I don't have a fedora core 4 system (nor the time and hardware to install it) .. :-( -- Oded ::..
