Hi, like it says on the top of the centos instructions.
"This solution requires pre-compiled libraries and we have no idea on
where does files are today... links are broken ".

The person who wrote this Running on Centos (and Debian Lenny) guide
didnt document what was in those files so no one knows if gdk-pixbuf
is the same as pixbuf.tar.gz and where all those files are....
I didn't like the whole download the libraries like this for a reason.
Centos and Debian at the time of the writing had very old libraries.

It works fine on Debian Squeeze and i bet it could work with the
libraries providied in Centos 6.2 if you use that.
If you are trying to get this to run a Centos as in the Xenserver
itself you will have to do what the person who wrote the Centos guide
did, which is .... well I dont know.
