Hi all, New member and fossology user here. Version 1.2.0 was recommended to me, with: "1.2 has both nomos and bsam searches. Occasionally, bsam will find things that nomos doesn’t and bsam highlights the license match, whereas nomos does not. So on nomos-only matches, you have to manually scan the file to find the match." I understand that 1.2 is no longer supported; and I very much don't want to debate those statements here.
I'm on Ubuntu Natty 11.04 64 bit on Amazon EC2. I tried installing fossology 1.2 from both the Ubuntu repos (with sudo apt-get install fossology) and svn, and it didn't quite work, throwing... -------------- ... Initializing agents. Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-close.c: 737: _dl_close: Assertion `map->l_init_called' failed! FATAL: '/usr/local/lib/fossology/agents/pkgmetagetta -i' failed to initialize *** Setting up scheduler *** ... <continued with no further errors> -------------- ...during both the apt-get install and also the svn make install. That led to missing license-agent errors later (see the "Initializing agents." log line above. Details of the license-agent error available upon request). I realize Ubuntu Natty 11.04 is not a supported platform. I worked around by installing 1.3 via svn: svn co https://fossology.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/fossology/tags/1.3.0/ . which has been working fine (I am scanning and reviewing results fine). Separate issue: Additional tests on this machine with 1.4 and trunk from similar urls worked fine. But please note that the url in this command: svn co http://fossology.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fossology/branches/fossology-1.4.0/ from: http://fossology.org/download throws: svn: Repository moved temporarily to '/viewvc/fossology/branches/fossology-1.4.0/'; please relocate Instead, the link that worked for me was: svn co https://fossology.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/fossology/tags/1.4.0/ . (But I went back to 1.2 as recommended to me.) So, any help working through the unsupported 1.2.0 ld.so error at the top of this message would be appreciated.
