So I had an issue with my qtp-newmodel.

I am running on Fedora 7; fully updated, haven’t had an issue with qtp-newmodel until this calmav update. I can see what the problem is but want to check before making changes and possibly breaking my qmail server. The message I get that halts the update process is the qtp-install-rpmforge informing me that my distro is not supported.

Start (qtp-whatami info):

qtp-newmodel v0.3.4 starting Tue Nov 18 10:10:37 EST 2008

qtp-whatami v0.3.2

DISTRO=Fedora

OSVER=7

QTARCH=i686

QTKERN=2.6.23.17-88.fc7

BUILD_DIST=fdr60

BUILD_DIR=/usr/src/redhat

This machine's OS is supported, but this version/arch has not been tested.

I changed the BUILD_DIST so that I could install qmailtoaster on the Fedora 7 server by telling it I have Fedora Core 6. No problems from this alteration.

Error and Halt message:

qtp-install-rpmforge v0.3 - getting latest version of rpmforge-release ...

qtp-install-rpmforge - rpmforge-release not installed, installing ...

qtp-install-rpmforge - your distro/ver is not supported by RPMforge, exiting.

I currently have no rpmforge-release installed.

I noticed that the qtp-install-rpmforge script has a RedHat 9 distro check as well as CENT OS distros:

######################################################################

# Check to see which distro and arch to install

#

a4_check_distro_arch(){

. qtp-whatami -s

rc=$?

if [ "$rc" != "0" ] && [ "$rc" != "1" ]; then

  echo "$me - your distro/ver is not supported for a toaster, exiting."

  exit 1

fi

case "$BUILD_DIST" in

  cnt40 )

    rhver=el4

    rfver=el4

Does anyone believe that adding my distro to this list (i.e. – “fdr60 ) fdrver=6 rfver=fdr6 fdrarch=i686 ;;”) and running the script again, “forcing” the qtp-install-rpmforge, will break my server? Maybe the syntax should be different? Or should I download and install the clamav update manually?

Any suggestions (or did I miss anything along the way)? Maybe this is a QTP “ticket” issue?

If you want to use qtp-newmodel with FC7, I'd simply comment out the qtp-install-rpmforge command in qtp-newmodel. I don't think simply adding fdr6 will do it, as the repo is different (see http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/FAQ.php#A2).

Please create a QTP ticket if you'd like to see FCx supported.
