Given that no 1.36 has appeared from Fedora Core, I thought I would create the rpm myself. I took the 1.35-11.2 src.rpm from FC3 and updated the spec file for 1.36. However, the build fails. Has anyone successfully created a 1.36 rpm for FC3? If so, what did you need to do? Gene

I expect that you need to drop a bunch of the patches that were applied to 1.35, and are now integrated into 1.36, or done differently. The only interesting patch to keep (if it still applies) is "nostrip", which is needed if you want the rpmbuild system to create a correct debuginfo rpm. Regards, Bill Rugolsky

It should be mostly suitable for FC3 --- if it doesn't work, please let me know, and send me any diffs that might be needed. - Ted
