I got it from the guys who make our control panel software.

Ok I think I will go back in time and use RH9 again.

thanks

Where did you get it from?

for one - this error happens with few other packages as well (when
installing RHL9 compiled binaries on FC1) - so, its kind of a known
issue.

And then, I think - the '9' in the revision indicates its built for
RHL9.

This is absolutely unnecessary.

Had you bothered to read the INSTALL file in the tarball, you would've 
discovered that it takes exactly one command to build binary RPMs directly 
from the source tarball.
