> One more time, Thank you very much Mathieu !

You're welcome!

Bottom line: do not install from source, except if your really want to
track the cutting edge of a project.

That's the whole point of providing RPMs of the latest stable versions
as we try to do: so that people don't have to go through this pain.

Cheers,

Mathieu
