Thanks. Well I only need the miredo client for F10, so I might skip Judy 
and only do a make install.

But if I can get some good hand-holding, I could build this rpm. Where 
do I put the Judy c library after downloading if from sourceforge (where 
I was pointed to for it)? I hope it will work 'out of the box'!

I am also building this on Centos, and already tried to do a 'make rpm' 
and it failed. And I don't see a spec file (which might be part of the 
reason for the failure). So I expect 'make rpm' to fail in F10 as well. 
So a little guidance would help.
