Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: obm

obm and its dependencies installed just fine.  And when browsing to
http://localhost/obm  I get the login screen.  I can then log in just
fine, and I have admin status.  Yay! Or so I thought.

The problem is that the options on the panel are incomplete.  There
should be an option to "Add Hosts" and it simply is not there.  From
what I've read of tutorials on the program, this is an integral part of
how the program works, and hence it is useless without it.

I wrote to the developers at obm.org and their response was that the
version in the Ubuntu repos was severely outdated and they did not
support it any longer.  They wouldn't or couldn't even point me in the
right direction.

In short, this package needs to be either removed or upgraded.  In its
current state, it is useless.  I have tried it on 9.04, 9.10 and 10.04
and it is the same packages for each successive Ubuntu release.
Ubuntu's repos have 2.1.10 and the current release from obm.org is 2.3.7
(I think)

I would much prefer for it to be upgraded, as I really need software of
this type.

Thanks for listening,
Jeff Smith
