please rebuild the fedora zabbix packages on epel too. in fedora and devel there are 1.6 zabbix packages while in epel only 1.4. it'd be very useful to update to the same level the epel packages too.
yours.

Comment 1 Jeffrey C. Ollie 2008-12-11 12:54:30 UTC
Upgrading from 1.4.x to 1.6.x requires database schema changes, something I'd rather not force users of EPEL to do on a "yum update" so EPEL-5 will keep Zabbix 1.4.x.  EPEL-6 will be upgraded to 1.6.x when EPEL-6 becomes available.

this means not in 2009:-(
anyway for those who try to install right now it's not a problem. 
but then please always create such a spec file which compile clean in epel-5 too.\
thanks.

Such is life with an "enterprise" linux distribution.

I personally recompile the Fedora 1.6.x RPMs for CentOS 5 as that's what my Zabbix server is running at $DAYJOB so that is a goal of mine as well.
