You'll see that 4.9 is packaged.
Unfortunately the web developers (who weirdly seem to be working on the
weekend) tell me that the issues we were seeing with 4.7 are apparently not
solved by 4.9. It seems we still have a requirement for 5.1.
Therefore a 5.1 RPM is still required. If I get a working build I'll make
it available unless someone beats me to it (-:
that's likely to be nontrivial; 5.0 and later require Python 2.5, and RHEL5
comes with Python 2.4. there was apparently a 4.10 release, but the
linkchecker developers appear to have removed the tarball from SourceForge,
so i didn't have any luck rolling up a package of 4.10. if you can find the
4.10 source tarball somewhere, let me know.
Well they probably had some reason to withdraw it, so i would not bother to
package a version which is no longer available.
Thank you very much for looking into this along with me. I've had no luck
finding a 4.10 tarball either. Currently (given the clamouring of my
developers) the option I'm considering is the IUS Python (2.6) RPMs. This
would then give me something to compile the tarball of LinkChecker 5.1 against
and potentially do an RPM too, even if it's useless on RHEL5 except when you've
installed a parallel Python. I'd be extremely happy not to have to go this
route. So very, very happy.
Thoughts?
