In reply to everyone who responded, I ran into a couple of issues when trying to figure out how to install gEDA on Fedora.... 1) Created the CD, plugged the CD into the CD-player and Fedora FC5 does not autorun. Oddball was I also have a 2nd CD/DVD (both RW) and it seems to autorun but I could not run ./installer maybe because the mount properties are not correct. 2) Digging deeper, the README says that if autorun fails, then to manually mount with gentoo/debian style, which I did, and I was then able to run the installer script. I had assumed at this point that following the wizard instructions, to define the source and installation directory would somehow take care of things for the proper environment, i.e. a Fedora environment for it's filesystem structure but I guess I was wrong... it was not installed in the correct place(s). Can anyone tell me how to properly install gEDA on Fedora or point me to the links where I can read up on it and install it right?
There are a bunch of gEDA packages in the review queue for Fedora Extras. You might consider trying them: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?product=Fedora+Extras&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=gEDA Paul.
