variable.

Apparently, cmake is looking for libraries and headers that are obsolete in the 
opencv distribution that is provided in Fedora 15

Just confirmed that this problem. F12 and 13 had this problem. I had to force 
the compile using opencv 1.0. 

I have tested the binarys that I made for F12 and they work. 

http://www.sjdsoft.hk/myyum/rpm/free/12/x86_64/opencv-compat-1.0.0.15-fc12.x86_6
4.rpm
http://www.sjdsoft.hk//myyum/rpm/free/12/x86_64/pam-face-authentication-gdm-0.3-
fc12.x86_64.rpm

Sorry these are 64bit. If you need 32bit you need to try and compile to 1.0 
source code. 

I am trying to do that now but still having no luck. I'll post my results here 
and on fedora forums.

Hi Steven,
