Re: sys_siglist not defined

[Quentin Spencer]

I built the RPMs you are trying to install on a Fedora 1 system. I think 
the main difference between Fedora 1 and Redhat 9 is likely in the 
versions of the compiler that are used. I think others have had problems 
before mixing different versions of gcc, for example. I would try 
downloading the SRPM files on the same web page and try recompiling them 
using the command:
rpmbuild --rebuild <file name>.src.rpm
In order to do this, you may need to install some additional libraries 
and compilers that weren't previously installed on your system.

regards,
Quentin
