If you get the following error:

------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):

Fedora is using SElinux, which makes life hell for the user. Kinda like Windows Vista, protect the system by  not allowing the user to use anything

To recitfy the problem as root or sudo execute
{{{
chcon -t texrel_shlib_t  /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/asap/_asap.so
}}}

== From source ==
