It probably should be reported to the mainline but Im not sure it can  
be fixed either.. :)

You can probably do a rpm -ivh openssl-devel krb5-devel

then rebuild one and install, then rebuild the other and install and  
then rebuild the first one again.. that seems convoluted, but you have  
to recompile gcc 3 times in order to get the bootstrap right too.

Im not sure exactly how important it is given usually you are using  
the shared libs anyway.

no idea. I was trying to figure that out as well.
It seems like they need to be reported in both places since they need  
to be fixed eventually by the official package maintainer

I didn't know. :)

fwiw, when i did kernel build time testing with the guruplug. I tried  
nfs, and a usb/esata drive plugged into either port. nfs with the  
nosync option was the fastest (50 minutes) and both esata and usb2  
were roughly the same time at 60 minutes.

Im surprised at this.. it doesn't -seem- like it should be quite that big.

hopefully. :)

I was hoping the f13 would be released for xmas. :) but it appears  
like f12 is going to be around a bit longer..
