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.

Hi !
I've got no problems with building on ScientificLinux 6 , a Redhat Clone
http://www.scientificlinux.org/distributions/
There are pixman-devel, pkgconfig and cairo-devel rpm's available for ..
and should also work on RHEL6 ... or you use the epel-repo

cheers,
