Re: CentOS install 6.2 - dnet library not found - but is there

Try installing it from source. I suspect it is wanting version 1.11 (or
whatever it is) and you may have an older version (especially if you
installed it from package manger in CentOS as while CentOS is 'stable' its
packages may be older than other distributions such as Fedora.

Kindest Regards,
