The FC packages can probably be used as-is on Red Hat Enterprise Linuxen >= 3, but I don't have a system to verify that on (that's why it's not in the documentation). Setting fixed, please reopen and assign to me if you think this needs more work. 2346 4 link 2004-09-15 18:37:09 +0000 If I can get you access to a RHEL 3.0 ES box, can you verify and update the docs? 2348 5 ville.skytta 2004-09-15 19:15:29 +0000 Ok. 2349 6 link 2004-09-15 19:56:10 +0000 Email me your SSH pubkey, PGP signed, and I'll set you up. 2355 7 ville.skytta 2004-09-16 16:59:01 +0000 Ok, I took a look at the RHEL3 situation (thanks, Terje!), and it does not look too promising wrt. the RPMs. First, RHEL3 has OpenSP 1.3.4. It /could/ be possible to upgrade to a later one using the openjade RPM from Fedora Core X, but I believe that would not be a good idea wrt. the RHEL support contracts. Further, if/when we soon start to require Perl >= 5.8.2, that would have to be upgraded too (RHEL3 has 5.8.0). And additionally, the required perl-* rpms from fedora.us would probably have to be rebuilt on EL due to differing versioned perl @INC directories. Summary: I think RHEL users are better off building everything from source, and we should leave the validator installation docs wrt. this exactly as they are now. --> Re-setting fixed.
