Kyle,
I'm running PINE 4.30 on RedHat 6.1 -- and it works. First let me show
what my machine says about PINE:
$ rpm -qi pine
Name: pine Relocations: (not relocateable)
Version: 4.30 Vendor: (none)
Release: 3 Build Date: Tue 28 Nov 2000
10:09:52 PM CET
Install date: Sat 23 Dec 2000 01:10:43 AM CET Build Host:
localhost.localdomain
Group: Applications/Internet Source RPM:
pine-4.30-3.src.rpm
Size: 4704372 License: Freely
Distributable
URL: http://www.washington.edu/pine/
Summary: A commonly used, MIME compliant mail and news reader.
Description: [ ....]
I built my own pine.rpm with the corresponding source.rpm -- if I read the
rpm-info from above correctly the pine.src.rpm version I used was
pine-4.30-3.src.rpm
I did a
rpm --rebuild pine-4.30-3.src.rpm
Your machine will then probably tell you what it still needs before it can
build the the pine rpm: you can look at rpmfind.net to download the
stuff source-pine still needs -- I'd suggest to meet all dependencies that
rpm --rebuild pine-4.30-3.src.rpm
wants being fulfilled before building the pine.rpm ... after this I think
it should be possible (with some luck, too ... :)) to install your newly
built pine.rpm.
Oh, nearly forgot that (don't know whether this is important or not ...):
on my machine:
$ rpm -q glibc
glibc-2.1.3-21
All in all I'd guess it should be possible to build this new pine on your
RedHat 6.2 without problems.
I think it was Thomas Ribbrock (Sorry, Thomas, for possibly wrongly
spelling your name ... ) explaining me some weeks ago how to build my own
rpms ... this is what he(?) told me (excerpt):
########################################################################
In many cases you can simply run the command
rpm --rebuild APPLICATION.src.rpm
to compile the SRPM into an RPM - you don't even have to know much about
compiling. If all goes well, you'll end up with a brandnew
APPLICATION.i386.rpm in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386, which you can then
install the normal way.

Let me know if you need more info ..
