Can you please advise on how I might best go about recovering from this so that I can backup all my data and configuration and rebuild FDS? Now, I'd probably like to go to FDS 1.0 as well. I'd like to get this install up and running just long enough to back everything up and then go with a new install of 1.0.
I've tried setting the time on the system back a couple months and that did not do the trick. I've noticed now that there's a pumpkin.pl PERL script in the fedora-ds directory? Is there some thing temporary I can do to expend the wick on the bomb for a bit, so that I might run for cover before it goes off again? :-)
Thanks.

Yes. The BUILD_BOMB is enabled by default. Our 7.1 binary builds had
the build bomb disabled. In order to build with this disabled, use
something like this:
make PUMPKIN_AGE=0 BUILD_BOMB="" .... other args ....
I apologize for this. We will be updating the wiki Building page ASAP.
Future versions of the source code will disable the build bomb by default.
