Okay I am getting just slightly upset now. Can somebody verify that the
src.rpms actually build from this URL:
ftp://ftp.helixcode.com/pub/helix/distributions/Red_Hat_6/SRPMS/
on a RedHat Linux 6.2 system. I would be very greatful if I could verify
that they actually work that way I can try to figure out why even though
ESD is installed control-center can't find its symbols,  maybe there is
some logical explanation (Hopefully). I've downloaded them a few
different times thinking that I may have had a bad download but I've
been working on this for at least 4 days and come up with the same
errors everytime.

Thanks,
Frank
