Hi again,
Got some more info to share on this topic. I tried to install the
kaa-base, kaa-imlib2 and kaa-metadata packages again and it seems that
there is some problem the build of the kaa.imlib2 module thing.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] kaa-imlib2-0.2.3]# python setup.py install --record

Now, what does that error message mean ?
The linker can't find the library file "png" or does the linker think
that "-lpng" is a file path...
-lpng means it is looking for a file called libpng.so or libpng.a. which
should be in /usr/lib (from -L/usr/lib).
This means that you need to install png development package. I would
expect just about all distributions to include these libraries out of
the box.
After adding the "libpng-devel" package, the build of kaa-imlib2
completed normally and I was able to reinstall Freevo without problems:-)
Installation of Freevo has really been difficult this time, compared to
the previous HTPC projects (for example the one before this when I
installed version Freevo 1.5.4). I believe that much of the trouble I'm
experiencing comes out of the fact that I didn't install Fedora as a
"Development workstation", for some reason I instead selected
"web-server" since I thought that it would give me a smaller "footprint".
Many thanks for the quick and accurate help.
