Redhat 4.2 first shipped over 10 years ago(!) -
http://www.redhat.com/about/presscen...s_jul2197.html. I have
little doubt that our RPMs won't work with such an ancient version, and
to be honest, I doubt you'll even be able to compile from source due to
the old versions of GTK etc. that are likely to be in that distro.

Is there any reason you cannot use something a little more modern? There
must be literally hundreds of thousands of bugs fixed since then.

Ahh, good ol' Redhat's version numbering...

I'd have said that one. What errors did you get? Devrim, should the FC
RPMs work on RHEL?

No.

I (at last) built and uploaded RHEL 4 RPMs. They are on developer site;
will sync to main FTP site soon. I could not test the RPMS (it can be
installed though). I'll be happy if someone downloads them and install.

I applied two small patches to pgadmin3 source code to build on RHEL 4.
pgadmin3 requires libxml2 >= 2.6.18 to build -- but RHEL has 2.6.16. I
patched acinclude.m4 and configure so that it looks for 2.6.16

Also, I built wx 2.8.3 RPMs for RHEL 4.

The patches and srpms are available on srpms/ directory:

$ ls *
rpms:
MD5SUM pgadmin3-1.8.0-beta3_1.rhel4.i386.rpm
pgadmin3-docs-1.8.0-beta3_1.rhel4.i386.rpm

srpms:
MD5SUM pgadmin3-1.8.0-beta3_1.rhel4.src.rpm
pgadmin3-libxml2-acinclude.m4.patch pgadmin3-libxml2-configure.patch
pgadmin3.spec wxGTK-2.8.3-2.rhel4.src.rpm

wx:
MD5SUM wxGTK-2.8.3-2.rhel4.i386.rpm wxGTK-devel-2.8.3-2.rhel4.i386.rpm
wxGTK-gl-2.8.3-2.rhel4.i386.rpm

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
