I am happy to help Jan out if he requires my help.
I do have RHish VMs, but that does not help the motivation :)
My current understanding of the issue is as follows.
nxagent-3.5.0.17-3.1.x86_64 is asking for a dependency that is only available on OpenSuse which is xorg-x11-fonts-core. I believe this issue was resolved
Was indeed resolved.
however when the rpm's attempted to be built it failed for some reason. Because of this the rpm's in the repo for RHEL_6 have not updated.
I believe this is the current error: [ 669s] RPM build errors: [ 669s] Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.tWnA7V (%install)
The error is
[ 122s] Processing files: libNX_FS6-3.5.0.17-0 [ 122s] error: File not found by glob: /var/tmp/nx-libs-3.5.0.17-build/usr/lib64/nx/libNX_FS.so.6* [ 122s] Processing files: libNX_FS-devel-3.5.0.17-0 [ 122s] error: File not found: /var/tmp/nx-libs-3.5.0.17-build/usr/lib64/nx/libNX_FS.so [ 122s] Processing files: libNX_ICE6-3.5.0.17-0 [ 122s] error: File not found by glob: /var/tmp/nx-libs-3.5.0.17-build/usr/lib64/nx/libNX_ICE.so.6*
This is because some files were not properly installed, and that in turn is because of some yet undiscovered problem in nx-libs's Makefiles that only triggers on older systems. I have found some problems that exist between bash-3.x and bash-4.x (that's where RH6 differs from F18), but apparently not all.
