[Xorp-users] build error in xorp : invalid conversion from 'const nlmsghdr*'

Hi,
I am trying to build XORP on Fedora 17 x86_64 machine.

I downloaded xorp-1.8.5-src.tar.bz2 from http://www.xorp.org/releases/current/

I untar it and ran : scons.

I am getting this error:
...
fea/data_plane/ifconfig/ifconfig_get_netlink_socket.cc:282:35: error:
invalid conversion from 'const nlmsghdr*' to 'nlmsghdr*'
[-fpermissive]
scons: *** [obj/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/fea/data_plane/ifconfig/ifconfig_get_netlink_socket.os]
Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.
...

Any ideas ?

Is there a way to build scons without fea? Or to build only pim?

scons --help | g fea
shows:
enable_fea_dummy: Build fea-dummy target (yes|no)

But:
scons enable_fea_dummy=no
gave me the same error above of "invalid conversion from 'const
nlmsghdr*' to 'nlmsghdr*' [-"

rgs,
Kevin
