I checked out the trunk from the SVN repo and tried installing it ( svn co 
svn+ssh://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/l/svn/oscar/trunk oscar). The install croaked, based on 
the linux version resolving to "Unknown" in /opt/oscar/lib/OSCAR/Distro.pm. I forced 
it to fedora v 2 by setting $name="fedora", and $version="2", but again the 
./install_cluster eth0 script croaked with an "No usable concrete DepMan module" error 
message. Therefore I am guessing that between the ./autogen.sh, ./configure, and make 
install steps some part of the scripts are not creating a DepMan perl module.

Also after the ./configure step I noted that it complains about perl-Qt not installed. 
That is easily solvable by 'rpm -i perl-Qt...' but this is again asking for trouble 
since the install environment is again not correct. 

Any advice appreciated.
