I note there's a source package on that AVR site, it might be worth trying to build from there. optimally, get that to build, then package it as an RPM, and get it into one of the more popular repositories, and all that 'repos are bad' nonsense goes away. -- john r pierce N 37, W 122 santa cruz ca mid-left coast
