Second, I had already posted a detailed trouble report to the gmvault group before posting here. No answer so far, we'll see. In any case, in general, utilities like this and their maintainers couldn't care less of the **Fedora** version. They only care about specific versions of python/perl or some of their modules, not whether or not the underlying distro version is still supported by its distributors. And so far all the many tools like this that I am running, all much newer than Fedora 17, and several newer than this gmvault version, have had no issue at all with being on an "unsupported version". That same box is also running several other, recent Python scripts that process email and/or interact with other Web services without any issue. Finally, in the past I've had several cases of programs like this failing not because the **version** of some package or module was too old or too new, but simply because the **configuration** or some default value was different. This is why, while being perfectly aware that Fedora 17 is unsupported, that even those other packages may stop working etc.. I'd really like to know what, exactly, makes gmvault fail in that way, on that system. Thanks, Marco -- M.
