Hi Mixo,

        I just build bluetooth disabled 0.5.6 rpms
for you, please download them and test them. If they
don't install at first, try the --nodeps flag (that is
non destructive), and report me any success / failure.

http://kalou.net/unix/gnokii/testing/gnokii-debuginfo-0.5.6-1.i386.rpm
http://kalou.net/unix/gnokii/testing/gnokii-devel-0.5.6-1.i386.rpm
http://kalou.net/unix/gnokii/testing/gnokii-xgnokii-0.5.6-1.i386.rpm


        I'm downloading RedHat 7.3 iso right now, to
setup the build environnement, and should be able to
compile some gnokii rpms for the 7.x branch by the end
of the week, disabling bluetooth support.

I'll let you know as soon as they are ready.
