Re: [CentOS] satisfying netdirector package dependencies

Hello,

we're looking at packaging up our current NetDirector bug fix release and we want it available as .rpm

at this moment, the maintainers don't have a test environment for Centos

does anyone know whether the latest versions of and Centos can satisfy Tomcat 5 and Java 1.4 JDK as dependencies?

as someone else said, the Java packaged with CentOS is GCJ, which is, imho, an abomination. I uninstall GCJ and all its dependencies, and use the Jpackage.org RPMs to install Sun Java and anything else such as Tomcat (they have Tomcat 4.x, 5.0, and 5.5 available, it looks like)

Note that on jpackage.org, JPP 1.7 is based on Java 1.4.2, while JPP 5.0 uses Java 5... I reommend starting here -> http://www.jpackage.org/jppfaq.php
