Michael, Regarding your questions, I downloaded a file called cobbler-0.6.0.tar.gz from the website http://cobbler.et.redhat.com/ . I extracted it, ran some kind of a build command, to end up with cobbler-0.6.0.linux-x86_64.tar.gz, which I untarred from the root directory. At no point did I see a requirement/prerequisite of Cheetah.Template (not on the website, not in the .tar.gz file, not during the build phase). When I ran the "cobbler check" command, and I got the failure, is when I discovered that something was missing.
RHEL and Fedora express package dependencies in RPMs, so if you don't build from the RPMs, you will get burned. If you look at http://cobbler.et.redhat.com/download/ there are source RPMs there. You can make an installable RPM from a src RPM using rpmbuild.
Or you could just add EPEL 5 as a repository and all of this is done for you with your package install tool.
If you build from Cobbler's source, you type "make" and make outputs an rpm. --Michael _______________________________________________ et-mgmt-tools mailing list et-mgmt-tools@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/et-mgmt-tools
