One wish: please fix the Debian package so that if we do the change documented to allow the OTRS package manager to function correctly, that the packages actually work. Previous versions of the "Debian-ized" OTRS package caused enormous problems with the OTRS package manager, which makes using the ITSM features an enormous PITA. Also, a comment: installing from source outside the packaging system (ANY packaging system, rpm/deb/SMP/E/whatever) pretty much renders a tool not viable in a enterprise setting. You lose the ability to do release management in any useful way at scale. Not a good idea to recommend such -- we need to fix the problem. Does anyone know if OTRS is built using a build system like cmake? It might be interesting to look into that; that would provide the ability to automatically build RPM, DEB, Solaris pkgadd, and AIX installp packages as part of the build system. --------------------------------------------------------------------- OTRS mailing list: otrs - Webpage: http://otrs.org/ Archive: http://lists.otrs.org/pipermail/otrs To unsubscribe: http://lists.otrs.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/otrs
