I see there's a i386 version in Dries for FC-4 but only an X86_64 version in FC-5. It might be in 'testing' . So, which version of FC are you using and how do you 'know' it's available? Did you go directly to the repository?

So, since Yarrow was FC-3, I guess you're using that version of Fedora?

fc 5
i cant find any fc 5 rpm

As I mentioned earlier, it looks as if it's available in the X86_64 version only on FC-5. I did find this possibility: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp...n.general/1975 - Look at James McDonalds's post and link to a version for FC-5 which he developed. Obviously, this is not from a normal source and if you decide to use it, I'd strongly suggest you download it and then use 'yum localinstall' (see man yum) to handle the dependency issues and be prepared to remove it and maybe do some repairs if it breaks things.
