Comment 1 Dave Anderson 2005-09-07 12:45:13 UTC
Please download version 4.0-2.3 from here:

 http://people.redhat.com/anderson

You can either install the src.rpm, go to your relevant SPECS directory,
(typically /usr/src/redhat/SPECS), and do a "rpmbuild -ba crash.spec",
and then install the resultant binary rpm.

Alternatively, un-tar the tar.gz version, go into the resultant top-level 
directory, and enter "make".  The crash executable will be built in that same
directory.



Comment 2 Christian Iseli 2007-01-22 10:03:27 UTC
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd.

Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and
either update the target product or close it ?

Thanks.
