I have just successfully building AG 2.2 on Fedora Core 2.

Umm. It seems I did wrong to change wxPythonGTK-py2.2 to wxPythonGTK-py2.3.

I instead use wxGTK 2.4.0 from http://www.wxpython.org/ and
wxPythonGTK-py2.3 2.4.2.4 from http://www.wxwindows.org/

I get xawtv 3.92 from dag repository at
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/xawtv/xawtv-3.92-1.1.fc2.dag.i386.rpm.

Me too.

I also have to modify gpt 3.0.1 due to misuse of $withval in configure. Umm.
It might be old source. Anyway, it works properly right now.

If you want to try my build, you can download it via below link.

http://osl.cpe.ku.ac.th/pub/accessgrid/fedora/linux/core/2/packages/AccessGrid-2.2-6.fc2.tar.gz

If you just want RPMS, check out below link.

http://osl.cpe.ku.ac.th/pub/accessgrid/fedora/linux/core/2/RPMS/

Otherwise, you can also install it using yum.

[accessgrid]
name=Access Grid
baseurl=http://osl.cpe.ku.ac.th/pub/fedora/linux/core/$releasever

Then simply run:

yum groupinstall agtk

Good luck,
