You will be chasing lot's of rpm dependencies if you don't have all your
packages install under RHEL.

Compiling from source will end up chasing an equivalent list of
dependencies, as we've already seen. There is no way to avoid installing
an SQL package if you compile freeradius with SQL support, for example.
I personally find installing from packages to be a lot easier, but you
can't always do that. For instance, I am using a freeradius compiled
from source, and it was a pain to chase down all the -devel packages I
needed because all I get from the configure/compile is that some include
file wasn't found or some library file is missing. It's not always
obvious which -devel package I need.</PRE></BLOCKQUOTE>That is why using a
srpm with a spec file specific to your distribution is your friend because it
explicitly lists the *exact* set of dependencies needed to build from the
srpm. You can either let rpm-build tell you what is missing or you can open
the spec file in an editor and search for "BuildRequires" which is where the
rpm's needed to build are listed.<BR><BR><PRE class=moz-signature cols="72">--
