Whew! That was quite a response. Mucho appreciated.
As for the potential need to install development packages, that is not
mentioned anywhere in the requirments, etc. The list in the README file
only lists a package and a version. No mention that it possibly needs
development and runtime.
Just to see what would happen, I installed the gmime development package and
sure enough, pkg-config still doesn't know that gmime exists. Again, IMHO,
the use of pkg-config to find what is installed is unreliable. Either
directly look for what is needed, or use yum to see if it exists. pkg-config
certainly doesn't do the trick.
So, I am going to get the F16 media from my friend and update to it. Then
I'm going to install one of the DEs that you've listed, after doing a little
research to see which one I want.
I'll then be able to yum a newer version of pan that has SSL built in.
Thanks for the info.
