Can you test this version and let me know if works for you ? http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1578189 if you have problem's please post a comment into the bug #515158 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 515158 *** Having put some more thought of this I'm positive that bug #515158 is not the same thing. If I understand this correctly, for this to e resolved there needs to be quite a few packages built for el4 for bugzilla to be installable. Fortunately, most of the packages can be rebuilt from the el5 sources without any changes. In the meantime, perhaps we should remove bugzilla from el4 as it can not be installed until all the dependencies are available. It turns out that I had a stale perl-Template-Toolkit package from some previous experiments with bugzilla on my box, now that I have rebuilt all the missing dependencies from EL5 EPEL the total number of packages rebuilt turns out to be 64. Since I have done the work of rebuilding all those pagckages for my own use anyway I have put them online at http://resare.com/noa/rpms/bugzilla-el4/ so that others lurking the bugzilla can use them as well. I will now try to contact the owners of all packages and try to get them to maintain a EL4 version as well. Wish me luck :) Well, that was interesting exercise. It turns out that I might have done this all wrong. EL4 base packages contain too old versions of CGI.pm (contained in the perl package), perl-DBI and perl-DBD-MySQL to satisfy the base requirements of recent bugzilla versions. Of course, the minimum version requirements can be bypassed by patching bugzilla, but when digging somewhat deeper into this it seems like they are there for good reasons. The only workable solution IMHO is to maintain a 2.22.x bugzilla version for EL4, which has library requirements that matches EL4 EPEL-4 has reached end of life and is no longer supported. Please retest your bug against EPEL-5 or EPEL-6 and re-open if the bug persists in the packages available in those releases, or file a new bug.
