Well the fix looks pretty obvious, but I'd like to know one more thing to really understand this. What other operating systems and versions do you have installed? Fedora 13 thru 18 (with more than one flavor of some), debian 6, omega11, suse, mandriva, centros, rhel, ubuntu and maybe some I have forgotten about. Problem did not occur with F17tc2. I am not trying to set a record or anything with installs, just something I have been doing for many years testing the installation of various flavors on linux. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 791317 *** |
