So I had an issue with my qtp-newmodel.

 

I am running on Fedora 7; fully updated, haven't had an issue with
qtp-newmodel until this calmav update. I can see what the problem is but
want to check before making changes and possibly breaking my qmail server.
The message I get that halts the update process is the qtp-install-rpmforge
informing me that my distro is not supported.

 

Start (qtp-whatami info):

 

qtp-newmodel v0.3.4 starting Tue Nov 18 10:10:37 EST 2008

qtp-whatami v0.3.2

DISTRO=Fedora

OSVER=7

QTARCH=i686

QTKERN=2.6.23.17-88.fc7

BUILD_DIST=fdr60

BUILD_DIR=/usr/src/redhat

This machine's OS is supported, but this version/arch has not been tested.

 

I changed the BUILD_DIST so that I could install qmailtoaster on the Fedora
7 server by telling it I have Fedora Core 6. No problems from this
alteration.

 

 

Error and Halt message:

 

qtp-install-rpmforge v0.3 - getting latest version of rpmforge-release ...

qtp-install-rpmforge - rpmforge-release not installed, installing ...

qtp-install-rpmforge - your distro/ver is not supported by RPMforge,
exiting.

 

I currently have no rpmforge-release installed.

 

 

I noticed that the qtp-install-rpmforge script has a RedHat 9 distro check
as well as CENT OS distros:

 

######################################################################

# Check to see which distro and arch to install

#

a4_check_distro_arch(){

 

. qtp-whatami -s

rc=$?

 

if [ "$rc" != "0" ] && [ "$rc" != "1" ]; then

  echo "$me - your distro/ver is not supported for a toaster, exiting."

  exit 1

fi

 

case "$BUILD_DIST" in

  cnt40 )

    rhver=el4

    rfver=el4

    rfarch=i386

    ;;

    echo "$me - your distro/ver is not supported by RPMforge, exiting."

    exit 1

    ;;

esac

}

Does anyone believe that adding my distro to this list (i.e. - "fdr60 )
fdrver=6 rfver=fdr6 fdrarch=i686 ;;") and running the script again,
"forcing" the qtp-install-rpmforge, will break my server? Maybe the syntax
should be different? Or should I download and install the clamav update
manually?

 

Any suggestions (or did I miss anything along the way)? Maybe this is a QTP
"ticket" issue?

 

Thanks;
