I'm trying to install xbmc on a Centos 5.4 server, so I followed the instructions from the documentation (http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=HOW-TO_compi...nux_CentOS), or at least tried to. One change I made was to add the epel repositories prior to running the yum install bit, adn that meant that I only had three missing packages: mysql_libs, hal_libs and libsmbclient-devel. I had previously downloaded version 27348 of the software, and when I tried to compile this with the ./bootstrap command I get the following error:
