Greetings, Here's the report on what I had to do to get FOSSology to build on a RHEL system. Next will be the steps/problems encountered making it run.
Experience of installing packages required for FOSSology on a RHEL5.3 x86 system that was installed with just development and default packages. The original list of required packages was generated by running fo-installdeps. The system was not registered with RHN, so nothing was automatically installed. Packages that were already installed ------------------------------------ file-4.17-15.i386 libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2.7.i386 subversion-1.4.2-4.el5.i386 file-4.17-15.i386 libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2.7.i386 binutils-2.17.50.0.6-9.el5.i386 bzip2-1.0.3-4.el5_2.i386 cpio-2.6-20.i386 mkisofs-2.01-10.7.el5.i386 rpm-4.4.2.3-9.el5.i386 tar-1.15.1-23.0.1.el5.i386 unzip-5.52-3.el5.i386 gzip-1.3.5-10.el5.i386 Packages I installed from distro DVD ---------------------------------------- postgresql-8.1.11-1.el5_1.1 postgresql-devel-8.1.11-1.el5_1.1 postgresql-server-8.1.11-1.el5_1.1 httpd-2.2.3-22.el5 php-common-5.1.6-23.el5 php-cli-5.1.6-23.el5 php-5.1.6-23.el5 php-pear-1.4.9-4.el5.1 php-pdo-5.1.6-23.el5 php-pgsql-5.1.6-23.el5 poppler-utils-0.5.4-4.4.el5_1 Packages mentioned by fo-installdeps (and their dependencies) that I found on rpm.pbone.net ------------------------------------- perl-Text-Template-1.44-4.el5 libtool-ltdl-1.5.22-6.1 # Required by libextractor, not mentioned by fo-installdeps mpeg2dec-0.4.0-8b.el5 # Required by libextractor, not mentioned by fo-installdeps libextractor-0.5.19a-1.el5 cabextract-1.2-1.el5 perl-DateManip-5.43a-1_12.0.el5 # Required by sleuthkit, not mentioned by fo-installdeps sleuthkit-2.01-oss_fc2_1 ucl-1.02-2.el5 # Required by upx, not mentioned by fo-installdeps upx-2.03-1.el5 unrar-3.8.4-1.el5 Packages not mentioned by fo-installdeps that were needed and found on rpm.pbone.net ------------------------------------- libextractor-devel-05.19a-1.el5 -- Channing Benson [email protected] _______________________________________________ fossology mailing list [email protected] http://fossology.org/mailman/listinfo/fossology
