> can i compile vyatta source code in fedora core 6 ?

Short answer is no.

Long answer is that the current build environment is Debian. We're working
to enlarge that, but it'll always be somewhat biased toward Debian-ish
systems because Vyatta uses Debian as the foundation of much of the system
and we rely on the Debian toolchain.

We're currently doing some work that should make the build system a bit
less restrictive and allow things like Ubuntu to be used, but the other
build systems will essentially be Debian-based. Fedora, being RPM-based,
won't be in the cards for a while.

Put another way, you're essentially asking the equivalent of whether it's
possible to build Debian in Fedora. While not theoretically impossible,
it's certainly not as simple as installing a couple of packages and typing
"./configure; make". If you're up for a challenge, feel free to pursue
this task. I'd be overjoyed if somebody could make this happen.

You can find instructions for how to build the current system on the
