[ Helping a deployment team here -- this is clearly a problem on Adobe's side, but maybe someone has seen it and resolved it. ]
AdobeAir 1.5.3 ships as a nasty .bin executable that self-expands into /tmp and attempts to build an rpm or a deb, right there, in place. This works ok on a vanilla F11. But on our builds, it bails out. Log attached... To get to this point, a few hurdles have been cleared -- partial recipe: switch to the Gnome environment, open a terminal, su and then... # it ignores TMPDIR so enlarge /tmp doing mount -o remount,size=20% /tmp # requires rpm build toolchain - !? yum -yt install rpm-build rpm-dev # the installer wants to open windows for you to click ok ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin # check that you have adobe-certs and adobeair installed rpm -qa adobe* This is clearly not something that can be rolled as is to an OS image. Anyone hoping to include the AIR runtime needs to ask Adobe for proper RPMs that install reliably and without user interaction. Adobe already offers proper .deb and .rpm packages for their AIR v2 alpha/beta. But not for their v1.5.x "stable" release, at least not publicly. cheers, m -- [email protected] [email protected] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff
