I'm also on Red Hat 7.2, and as a developer I can tell you it is a royal hastle getting 1.4 on a Red Hat 7.2 system because it requires an XFree86 upgrade, installing fontconfig, upgrading libfreetype, and a bunch of other stuff. GNOME 2.2 just won't build without all this... and in fact, I had to hack a lot of the sources to even get gtk 2.2 and other GNOME 2.2 libs installed on my system even with all the upgrades. My guess is that this is also a big reason why we (Ximian) do not support Red Hat 7.2 anymore, it's just too much work. Jeff
Not to mention, redhat will no longer support 7.2 after December 31st. What's the point of putting work into something that won't be around much longer? -- Dan Stromberg DCS/NACS/UCI <strombrg dcs nac uci edu>
