You could do that. It may not be that easy, there's library issues you may have to work out. I ended up creating my own MySQL 4 spec file that created the libraries and client files for me. It worked for what I was trying to do but it doesn't work for all Fedora packages. Be prepared to compile other programs against the MySQL 4 libraries (like php for example) What are the packages you're trying to use with MySQL 4.1 on FC3? -Mike
