[Xymon] Trouble installing 4.3.4

[Root, Paul]

Use yum to install.

Yum install cario-devel

If you are building from scratch, you'll need all of the packages used (cario, png, pango, etc) with the -devel extension, to add the header files so things will build

Rrd you have to build yourself.

Subject: [Xymon] Trouble installing 4.3.4

I'm setting up a pair of new Xymon servers for testing. I want to do a clean install of Xymon 4.3.4. The servers are RHEL 6 (and I'm a Solaris admin so ...). I've downloaded the tar.gz file from Sourceforge and tried to do the configure, but I'm having some trouble with dependencies. I installed rrdtool-1.4.4 with yum, but cairo-png and pixman-0.10.0 are needed and I'm dealing with those.

Before I go beating my head to a pulp, I'm wondering if there's an easier way. I have looked for an RPM, but have found nothing. I've searched the mail archives and have found nothing saying "for an RPM for Xymon 4.3.4 for RHEL 6 look here...". Or anything even close to that.

Any pointers? Or failing that, what do I need to do to get all the dependencies installed. pkg-config is giving me a headache. It is being very finicky about where libraries are located.

Thanks!
