Hi, I just wrote a basic documentation that should allow you to start the port of OSCAR-6.0.1 on different Linux distributions. This is not yet perfect and remember that oscar-packager is in development. However, if you have to try the tool, please do so, and if you have any problem, please just let me know, i will be happy to try to fix all the different issues you could have.
http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/trac/oscar/wiki/DistroPort In case, you have issues, please use the "--verbose" option of the oscar-packager tool so that i could have a good trace of the problem. That will greatly help me.

But SUSE is supported in oscar5.1 beta! Allan Allan, I worked on a new tool, oscar-packager, that allows you to do that easily. The tool is not quite stable yet but if you want to play with it, the source code is available here (under SVN): http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/svn/oscar/pkgsrc/oscar-packager/trunk I think you should be able to create RPM at least for the OSCAR core. Note that this tool is based on scripts other OSCAR developers did in the past, i just extended and integrated them. Ultimately, my goal is to have a single tool to package OSCAR on any Linux distribution, hiding the different binary package formats and their associated tool. If you decide to do so, let me know, i still have few stuff to check in. A good starting point is to read the very brief man page (man oscar-packager). To install the tool, the only solution is currently to check out the source code from the SVN repository and then to execute as root "make install". You will also need the OSCAR Perl modules (oscar-base-lib) available via our repositories or via trunk. I hope it helps. Let me know if you have any questions. Also, when oscar-6.0.1, i plan on finalizing the tool and release it. Then, some more detailed documentation will be available.

If you give me the the pointers and help i do not mind helping out. Thank you very much for OSCAR! OSCAR ON!
