And this packages are very well integrated with other Fedora ones. I at first downloaded the compatibility RPM from the MySQL website (thanks for the link, Paul). Everything installed properly, and the mysqld started without error. However, after reading your post, I uninstalled the RPM from MySQL (with the --nodeps option), and did what you suggested. I agree with your reasoning: since I'm using the development source RPMs anyway, I might as well use all of the ones I need from development. So far mysql is running happily. I haven't done any heavy loading of it yet, but SugarCRM, Request Tracker, and Mambo Server will soon be making use of it. Hopefully nothing blows up in my face. :) Thanks to all who responded. I appreciate your help. Regards, Ranbir -- Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu Linux Consultant Systems Aligned Inc. www.systemsaligned.com
