AS 2.1 is built off of RH 7.2, IIRC.  It might have errata (update 2,
perhaps?) build off of 7.3.  I've never heard of anyone providing apt or
yum repositories for anything RHEL, since only Red Hat distributes
binary rpms for the Enterprise stuff.

No disrespect, but if you don't have the stomach for it, you probably
shouldn't a) be using tora or b) be using Red Hat.  Don't blame the
platform (IMO) for the way the package maintainer (tora) distributes the
software.  It's pretty obvious that you're unfamiliar with the
versioning between the various distributions, you're bound to break
something very soon.

It would save us all a lot of traffic volume and wasted time if you want
to just give me ssh access, and I'll install it for you.
