I upgraded my system to Fedora Core 7 and got a compilation problem when installing Hmisc package. According to the error messages (shown below), I have tried to updated all of my glibc, gcc, automake rpm packages, but that did not help. Could you help me pointed out what package I have missed? Thank you.
