Do you have error logs? > I know that FOSSology should install clean on a Debian Lenny system > (which is what we use) The 1.2.0-1 and 1.2.0-2 package install cleanly, but they have upstream bugs that prevent some agents from running. The 1.2.0 release had a lot of problems that I have been adding fixes for in the Debian package (and maybe the fossology team is going to do a 1.2.1 release for?). Most of them are solved in 1.2.0-2, but not all. > or a RedHat 5.X system (which is also what we > use). I will be trying a ubuntu 8.04 server version on Thursday. I > believe that will work.

What needs to happen is we need known good packages and then they can be backported to the various Ubuntu releases. > I am sure given some more time I can get past the 10.04 issues.

I'd wait until we have known good packages before doing anything else. Those will be available for Debian unstable and lenny first, then Ubuntu releases once backports are done. I have no idea when rpms will be available, but I know the current ones have all the 1.2.0 bugs. -- Matt Taggart tagg...@fossology.org _______________________________________________ fossology mailing list fossology@fossology.org http://fossology.org/mailman/listinfo/fossology
