Re: [Users] Problem with required packages when installing ovirt-engine
The problem is that you are installing fedora packages into SL. They
were
really built for Fedora. They may actually work, but I believe that their
are some packages missing from base repos for RHEL, SL, and CentOS. On
RHEL, you would get those packages when you added RHEV. I don't think they
exist for SL or CentOS. Look through the January messages on this board.
SOmeone was doing the install on one of the EL clones and you may find more
info there. Otherwise you could try using Fedora.
Thank you. Yes, I naively assumed that this would install on any
reasonablly current RPM-based system, since I didn't see (and still
don't see) any system requirements anywhere in any docs that suggest
otherwise. All I see says "point to our yum repo and install it". When
I saw the failed dependencies when I tries to install the engine, I
started to suspect that this was based on a far "newer" system than I
had.
I have now installed Fedora 16, and will try again.
