So that I understand this correctly, Best Practical does not provide this RPM (at least not directly). Is that correct? The RT Wiki on the Best Practical site explains how to install an RPM, but does not provide the RPM nor does it tell you how to get it. Is that correct? From what I see on rpmfind.net, the RPMs are available from RedHat and not Best Practical. I also googled a couple of references that seemed to indicate that RedHat is including RT. Can anyone point me to a link that details in which RH products RT is included? Were these RPMs created by Best Practical and provided to RedHat or did RedHat create them on their own? If created by RedHat how does Best Practical relate to these? Are they still considered "official" versions? I downloaded a couple of the the RPMs from rpmfind via the links on the left side of the list (which takes you to the details page) and they all appear to be source files, not the product install. They extract a tgz-file into /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/. With all of the links on the right side I get "cannot read FILENAME". Other files on this page work, so I do not see it as a general problem, but rather a problem with these specific files. Has anyone here actually tried these RPMs? Since I already spent a couple of hours installing all of the perl dependencies I am naturally curious what will happen when one tries to install the RPMS. The source RPMs that I downloaded do not appear to contain any Perl modules, so it would seem to me that at least with these RPMs, so work is saved by downloadin the RPMs. Does anyone know what is contained in the product RPMs?
