Yes, it does fix the problem. However, as Christian points out here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=531864#44, that may not be the best way to address this issue. He goes on to suggest additional steps to root cause the error. I'm in the process of doing that now. So far, I can report that the extract command seems to work fine. So, now, I am digging deeper into how fossology use libextractor and, in particular, the search path expected by fossology.

I realize you need libextractor to get fossology working, but I'm curious, do you actually need or use the (pkgmetagetta) agent? That's the only agent that needs libextractor. It's used to grab meta data from different files (like exif headers from jpg's, etc). Fossology can display this data but we never wrote the ui to make it easy to search or combine for reports. So do you use the data from the pkgmetagetta agent, or are you just going through this because you need fossology to build? I'm asking because I would like to know how much priority we should give to making our agents modular (so you don't have to build the ones you don't want). Modular agents would also allow us to have a faster release cycle, and encourage others to write agents.

Someone else can chime in on how to do this the official way (probably fo_postinstall), but you can also build it from source. fossology/agents/foss_license_agent/Licenses/mkselftestcache Bob On Feb 25, 2010, at 4:57 PM, Furosh One wrote: Anyone know how to get around the License.bsam agent not being in /var/lib/fossology/agents directory?
