I've just done a "cvs update" and am attempting to build on this machine, but I don't get very far at all: cd . && ./.preconfig Can't locate object method "path" via package "Request" at /usr/share/autoconf/Autom4te/C4che.pm line 69, line 111. ./Util/preconfig: ./.preconfig failed (status 1) I've already sent mail to the CentOS mailing list about this, but on the off chance anyone has a clue I thought I'd mention it here as well.
