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

[Kermit Short]

Excellent information, Mr. Krause!  I never thought to look for a bug 
report, but I get very similar yum transcripts.  I have a wide range of 
dependency issues depending on whether I'm installing on a very sparse 
test server or a more robust computational server, but it does 
eventually boil down to the make_path issues you've pointed to.  Thanks 
for all the effort and information you've put in!
