Re: [X2Go-User] x2goserver doesn't configure properly on RHEL 5 (problem with perl's file module?)

Hi list,

Inspired by Kermit Short's posting a week ago, I tried to install x2goserver on RHEL 5 (x86_64) today. Missing dependencies I installed manually. The dependency on the perl-file module reported by yum

Error: Missing Dependency: perl(File::BaseDir) is needed by package x2goserver ---- I tried to fullfill with

[root@hermes ~]# rpm -i perl-File-BaseDir-0.03-1.el5.noarch.rpm

[...] Installing: x2goserver ####################### [22/24] "make_path" is not exported by the File::Path module Can't continue after import errors at /usr/sbin/x2godbadmin line 25 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/sbin/x2godbadmin line 25. [...]

Now, calling x2godbadmin yields the same error message as during installation by yum:

[root@hermes log]# /usr/sbin/x2godbadmin "make_path" is not exported by the File::Path module Can't continue after import errors at /usr/sbin/x2godbadmin line 25 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/sbin/x2godbadmin line 25.

[...]

Do I need a specific version of perl(File::BaseDir)? Any ideas how to fix the x2goserver configuration?

I just found http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=254. Seemingly, the problem with 'make_path' is already mentioned there, albeit not as the main topic of the reported bug. Is there a known workaround?

Best,

Holger
