Conversely, if someone can point us at an easy to recompile-from-source pile of source RPMs for the necessary Gnome components, then we might take a poike at it.I think the GNOME distribution includes SRPM's as well as tarballs?
We discovered the hard way that GNOME current assumes that no one would want to build GNOME on anything earlier than RH 6.0. Our most current complete StackGuard environment is RH 5.2. When we get the EGCS port of StackGuard running, then we ca work on RH 6.1, and *then* we can build GNOME current. So to refine the question: can someone point me at GNOME sources that are old enough to compile on RH 5.2, and are thought to be vulnerable to this problem?
