Well it just was there. When I ran yum whatprovides */pdfedit it told me
what rpm to install. What is strange it told me it came from a repo
@update/15
There is no repo on my machine with that name. It is indeed a F15 rpm.

That's a Fedora 15 RPM and it came from the Fedora 15 updates
repository. If you upgraded to Fedora 16, there is nothing strange
going on.

It was orphaned by the maintainer and noone else stepped up. Apparently
it has bugs and upstream is inactive.

I downloaded pdfedit pdfedit-0.4.5.tar.bz2 and try to build it by make.
after ./configure. I was informed
...............
checking for size_t... yes
checking whether struct tm is in sys/time.h or time.h... time.h
checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E
checking if zlib is wanted... configure: error: libz not found
................
. I check the zlib with rpm -qa zlib, the system inform that
pdfedit-0.4.5.tar.bz2 exists.
who tell me why, and how to do?

You might need libz-devel (or whatever it's called).

You must have in your system the devel packages for zlib if you want to
build the package:

sudo yum install pdfedit --releasever=15 runs in F16 too!

Except I did not update to F16 from F15. I installed fresh from the
installation DVD. So there is something strange going on.

Not strange at all. It just means that there hasn't been an update
recently and whoever's responsible for the package didn't repackage it
for F16. Happens all the time.
