MySQL provide the RPMs for Fedora 12. Remi also provides RPMs for other 
versions, if you're interested:

You haven't said exactly what you typed to get this output, but if you 
have line numbers when using man, you've asked for line numbers from 
the pager that man uses, called "less". I think that typing

echo $LESS

will show that you've got the "-N" option set. unset LESS to stop this 
happening. If this isn't the case, then you may have the MANPAGER 
variable set to something like "/usr/bin/less -N". man man for details.

The font issue (seeing <80><98>lm<80><99>) is actually an encoding 
issue in the man page you're looking at. It appears that the document 
is using Windows curly quotes, which are not at their standard Unicode 
positions. This would be a bug in the package that supplies that man page.

Hmm, I got this bit wrong. Having checked the help page in question, I 
can see that, on my box, the rendered help page (produced from HTML 
source) seems to have the bytes:

E2 80 98 l m E2 80 99

which is the UTF-8 encoding for U+2018 lm U+2019, so ignore what I said 
about Windows encodings.

If there was a locale discrepancy between R and your terminal, I'd 
expect to see <80><98>lm<80><99> on the display, but your 
display misses the , which leaves me more confused.

That *still* means it shouldn't have anything to do with your 
particular font.

What locale are you using?

What is displayed when you type 'locale' in the shell (not in R)?

 From within R, you have the option of stopping "smart" quotes from 
appearing, which might improve things. Try:

options(useFancyQuotes = FALSE)

See help() for more details.

rpmbuild --rebuild takes a source package and does the installation for 
you; you can see it saying "Installing" in the first line of the output.

The screenshots show that you have got sub-pixel anti-aliasing enabled 
on Ubuntu, but only greyscale anti-aliasing on Fedora. Sub-pixel 
anti-aliasing is the appropriate choice for an LCD display.

On XFCE, I select Preferences -> Appearance and change properties in 
the Fonts tab.

You're just listed the things on which zoneminder depends (-qR). You 
haven't shown that anything else depends on zoneminder.
