The solution is to go with the pilot-link from FC3. Get the old rpms and install them. If you use jpilot rpm -ivh --force --relocate /usr=/opt/jpilot jpilot-0.99.7-2.i386.rpm \ pilot-link-0.11.8-8.i386.rpm -- Time flies like the wind. Fruit flies like a banana. Stranger things have .0. happened but none stranger than this. Does your driver's license say Organ ..0 Donor?Black holes are where God divided by zero. Listen to me! We are all- 000 individuals!
