Description Richard Shaw 2011-10-27 18:00:09 UTC
Description of problem:
Documentation for installing BackupPC in RHEL needs improvement.

Two specific pieces of information needs to be added.
1. The 'RHEL Server Optional' channel needs to be enabled[1] as there are perl dependencies which it provides.

2. The EPEL repository needs to be enabled/installed. Adding it during installation is not sufficient[2]. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
BackupPC-3.2.1-6.el6.x86_64
