RPM/SRPM issues and old RHEL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi there,

I'm trying to get started testing out Fedora Directory Server with the 
goal of replacing our OpenLDAP infrastructure. Most of our servers are 
RHEL3/4 so there are no big issues there since there are already 
prepackaged binary RPMS for those platforms.

But we do have two RHEL2.1 server which we will definitely need packages 
for in order to do any migration to FDS. Upgrading these servers to 
RHEL3/4 is not an option. Looking at the spec file of the SRPM from 
RHEL3 it seems like dependencies won't be a problem, the spec file 
itself is a mess and doesn't come close to building everything (which I 
understand is a work in progress).

So my questions are: has anyone got FDS running well on RHEL2.1 (either 
by compiling directly from source, shoehorning the RPM from RHEL3 or 
building the RPM from the SRPM)? Has anyone written their own spec file 
from scratch to build FDS in its entirety from sources? I also wanted to 
change the installation prefix from /opt so getting a working and 
complete spec file would be very desirable.
