[ILUG] Re: Installing software on Linux (Specifically Fedora core 3)

[David Jamison]

Joseph,

I had pondered on the path issue and found the following 
http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-27965.html which 
gave the same solution that you propsed!  Eclipse is now running under 
root and im now working on getting it running under the user account :-S

I had thught that using a rpm file would have been able to do a comlete 
configuration but clearly not therefore the original question remains - 
wHY is software so hard to install on Linux?  Or maybe why is the 
documentation so poor and incomplete?
