[Oscar-devel] beta 5 testing with Mandrake 8.2

[Jason B.]

Since I normally don't do much Mandrake testing, I assume I'm installing 
the OS differently than those who do more with it (like the folks at 
Sherbrooke).  I installed it as I do a RedHat system, which means the 
standard options, plus Software Development tools.  In doing so, there were 
a number of RPMs that weren't installed.  Here's the list:

lynx
libmm1
nfs-utils-clients
perl-CGI
expat
libexpat1_95-devel
Since these packages are required before the prereq portion of the install, 
shouldn't we be checking some of these to make sure the install goes 
well?  There seems to be numerous e-mails to the list saying "I got an 
error like lynx >= 2.8.5 is needed by ...".  I know this is in the FAQ 
(IIRC), but we could do some checking... yes?
