Thanks for clearing that up, EE.
I've attached the latest version of qtp-whatami, which will also be included
in the next QT-plus release. It uses the fdr60 parameter for FC7,8 systems,
so they might work better. Users should understand that this is the best we
can do with the 1.3 branch, and FC7+ will not be supported until 1.4 is
released.
Thanks again to EE for all his work on this.

The Fedora + QT users is such a low amount of users, it's really not
worth it especially since FC6 compiles FC7/8 properly in most cases.
If someone wants to step up and rewrite the current spec files (and
send me diffs) then I will go ahead and release them.
I can't do it all myself.

That's precisely the problem. They dropped Core from the name and the

You need to be sure that the packages on the web site have been upgraded for

If the packages haven't been configured for the version you're running,

the /etc/fedora-release file to correspond to the most recent toaster

qtp-whatami script. The changes made in that script where the addition of
fdr70 to the distro list at the beginning, the removal of word 2 in the
check fedora section and OSVER=$word3 relnum=${word3%.*}:
That's the extent of the fix for FC7/8, but it breaks the script for earlier
versions. Here's a fixed version of that routine:
###
## check fedora
#
b23_fedora(){
BUILD_DIR=/usr/src/redhat
if [ $word1 == Fedora ]; then
if [ $word2 == release ]; then
DISTRO=$word1
OSVER=$word3
relnum=${word3%.*}
case $relnum in
8 | 7 )
BUILD_DIST=fdr${relnum}0
q1_distro_64
esac
elif [ $word2 == Core ]; then
DISTRO=$word1 $word2
OSVER=$word4
relnum=${word4%.*}
case $relnum in
6 | 5 | 4 )
BUILD_DIST=fdr${relnum}0
q1_distro_64
if [ $relnum == 5 ]; then
case $QTARCH in
i386 | $ARCH64 )
tested=y
;;
esac
fi
;;
3 | 2 | 1 )
BUILD_DIST=fdr${relnum}0
;;
esac
fi
fi
}
Will you edit your script with this version and give it a try? If it works
then I'll check it in for the next QTP release.
I have not tested this alteration yet as I fear that upgrading with the
qtp-newmodel might run into issues.
You need to be sure that the packages on the web site have been upgraded for
versions 7,8 before it'll work for sure. I don't know their status, but Erik
Espinoza would know for sure (since he's the one who does all that magic).
If the packages haven't been configured for the version you're running,
they'll be built with the default settings, which probably won't work for
you. If you want to fake it out, the easiest way is to (temporarily) change
the /etc/fedora-release file to correspond to the most recent toaster
version. (don't forget to change it back later!)
Sory for the rambling, the answer to your question is at the top...

That version of qtp-whatami should recognize FC7 (keyword: should).
What does
# cat /etc/fedora-release
tell you?

OS of choice) and I could go about this all manually. Also, I have not
yet had the chance to try Natalio's qtp-whatami changes. I will give
that a try once the storms have passed through New England over the next
two days. (I could try it remotely but fear the possible errors.)

Will the current version or your newer release have F7 support already incorporated (and I will not need to hack the qtp-whatami file)? The current version should show it as tested but not supported. That will not stop the installation as long as you tell it to continue. The new version will do the same, since we're pretty much only testing and supporting on CentOS these days.
