I installed all dependencies on this clean system (but without any updates since Fedora 14 release), then downloaded Blender source files and tried to compile and run it. I found only two missing dependencies, gettext and gettext-devel. After those dependencies were installed Blender compiled without errors and starts ok. I get this message when I start Blender: $ ./blender Info: Config directory with "startup.blend" file not found. found bundled python: /home/liveuser/blender-build/install/linux2/2.56/python Are you running Fedora 14? Have you made some tweaks to your system? Hope this helps.
