Hello Richard, Can't configure febootstrap-3.12 on Fedora 16: $ ./configure ............ checking for aptitude... no checking for apt-cache... no checking for dpkg... no checking for pacman... no checking for gzopen in -lz... no checking for mke2fs... /sbin/mke2fs checking for error_message in -lcom_err... no configure: error: in `/home/ato/febootstrap/febootstrap-3.12': configure: error: com_err library not found (part of e2fsprogs) See `config.log' for more details [ato@f16 febootstrap-3.12]$ gcc -std=gnu99 -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -lcom_err /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.6.2/../../../../lib64/libcom_err.a(error_message.o): In function `et_list_lock': (.text+0x18d): undefined reference to `sem_wait' /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.6.2/../../../../lib64/libcom_err.a(error_message.o): In function `et_list_unlock': (.text+0x1b6): undefined reference to `sem_post' /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.6.2/../../../../lib64/libcom_err.a(error_message.o): In function `setup_et_lock': (.text.startup+0x11): undefined reference to `sem_init' /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.6.2/../../../../lib64/libcom_err.a(error_message.o): In function `fini_et_lock': (.text.exit+0xa): undefined reference to `sem_destroy' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status It seems that sem_* symbols are in -pthread - thist works OK: $ gcc -std=gnu99 -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -pthread -lcom_err so What must be corrected ?

PS You can also add: yum install git mailx autoconf automake texinfo ocaml pcaml-findlib to the descripion on how to install on fresh F16. to save others from my detective work.
