hello oscar users. We have been using OSCAR-1.4b4 for almost 2 years on RedHat 7.3 in a production environment, with no problems. The time has come for us to move on, though and I'm busy testing OSCAR 3.0 on a Fedora Core 1 box. After noticing that some rpms weren't on the Fedora cd's (automake and autoconf), I managed to build the oscar distribution from CVS (yesterday). "make install" ran fine, but I then encountered the same error as Michael Edwards reported on the 13th of November.

I have perl-DBI-1.21-1 installed from RPM. If anybody has encountered this error and overcome it, I'd be very glad to know the fix. Thanks, Bruce (ps, as (a small) part of the ALICE experiment at CERN's LHC, I'm very glad to hear that CMS has decided use OSCAR for it's event builder/HLT farm !) -- Bruce Becker UCT-CERN Research Center - University of Cape Town Room 405, R.W.
