Re: [help-GIFT] GIFT -- problems are solved

[Wolfgang Mueller]

Hi Mercedes,

Maybe to complete things, if I recall right one of the main problems was
that Fedora does not like you to relocate libraries. Is this problem
gone with the cvs version? or do you still need to run GIFT as root?

Thanks for your report!

Best,
Wolfgang
