That's precisely the problem. They dropped "Core" from the name and the
script doesn't find the release number as a result.

That's the extent of the fix for FC7/8, but it breaks the script for earlier
versions. Here's a fixed version of that routine:
###################################################################
## check fedora
#
b23_fedora(){
BUILD_DIR=/usr/src/redhat
if [ "$word1" == "Fedora" ]; then
if [ "$word2" == "release" ]; then
DISTRO="$word1"
OSVER=$word3
relnum=${word3%.*}
case $relnum in
8 | 7 )
BUILD_DIST=fdr${relnum}0
q1_distro_64
esac
elif [ "$word2" == "Core" ]; then
DISTRO="$word1 $word2"
OSVER=$word4
relnum=${word4%.*}
case $relnum in
6 | 5 | 4 )
BUILD_DIST=fdr${relnum}0
q1_distro_64
if [ "$relnum" == 5 ]; then
case $QTARCH in
i386 | $ARCH64 )
tested=y
;;
esac
fi
;;
3 | 2 | 1 )
BUILD_DIST=fdr${relnum}0
;;
esac
fi
fi
}
Will you edit your script with this version and give it a try? If it works
then I'll check it in for the next QTP release.

You need to be sure that the packages on the web site have been upgraded for
versions 7,8 before it'll work for sure. I don't know their status, but Erik
Espinoza would know for sure (since he's the one who does all that magic).
If the packages haven't been configured for the version you're running,
they'll be built with the default settings, which probably won't work for
you. If you want to fake it out, the easiest way is to (temporarily) change
the /etc/fedora-release file to correspond to the most recent toaster
version. (don't forget to change it back later!)
