just dowenload install file or tarball and intall youself,it works fine.



Actually I just fixed a problem that occured because I did do this.

RH and Fedora don't use the same directories as the tarball's and thus you can end up with conflicts if you don't remove traces of the other versions. Configuration files can also be in different directories.

This should be corrected in the future so if there are changes to an application that will benefit a user and there is no official upgrade planned then getting the tarball would be an option. Use the same directories as the tarball/official release.

Using the same directories would also make troubleshooting any problems easier. I don't know how many times I have looked at a support page and found that the files were not in the listed location on RH systems.

It should also make it easier to create packages.
