Yes, version 2.5.4 has been ported to RH 7.0. Depending on your
environment, you may need to apply the attached patch to compile
Polygraph on RH 7.0.

I am not aware of any ./configure problems. Please download the
sources from polygraph.ircache.net and try the following (some file
names may differ in spelling a bit):

The patch command should produce no output unless there were errors.
If something does not work or you have other installation problems,
please e-mail the complete output to polygraph-bugs at ircache.net,
and we will go from there.

Sorry, we do not distribute/support RPMs.
