giis 4.4 compilation failed on FC10 i386

Hi,
I tried to compile and install giis on my Fedora Core 10 i386
machine. The compilation failed.

Here is the output:

H Tomi,
To compile giis from source,you need kernel source codes too. Because
giis uses ext3 File system header files.

Sample error:

giis.h:18:28: error: linux/ext3_fs.h: No such file or directory

In case if you want to install giis without kernel codes ,I have also
provided binary version along with the source code , I believe you can
install giis binary
(Please refer INSTALL file for more details)

Any problems or issues,don't hesitate to post it here :)

Cheers,
Lakshmipathi.G
