Ah, that explains it, thank you!

Hmm.. so far I've been building RPMs based on the
semi-official-looking .src.rpm files here:

	http://opensource.nederland.net/omniORB/

...but they only go up to 4.1.0 and 3.0. Are there newer .src.rpm files
available somewhere?

As I mentioned, this is a code-base I inherited, and I trusted the
documentation I had that specified those versions. I'll try to get
things up and running with the latest versions and report back if I
have any more compatibility questions.

Thank you again!

Tim.
