Fedora 9 is going to have as a base package.  I think Fedora 8 it is
still considered as a testing app.  I had issues on Fedora 8 when
attempting to set it up.  Fedora 9 seems to have most if not all the
bugs worked out of the install process.  I had my first successful
installation on Fedora 9 yesterday.
