Hello list,

today we (at GR-03-HEPNTUA) tried LCG 2.4.0 installation on Scentific 

Linux 4. As expected installation failed because of rpm conflicts. The 

problems were related mostly to deprecated packages and unresolvable 

dependencies (because of strict version requirements).

The fact is that the scientific linux team is doing a great job and the 

new version seems much better (and to date) than the previous one 

(things like gigabit are working out of the box now!). I wonder if there 

is work being done to support installation of LCG on SL4. Are there any 

experimental rpm repositories we can play with?

It would interesting if you could post a list of the hard RPM dependency

errors you hit. My suspicion would be that most of them of not needed

anyway. The likelihood is that the LCG code stands a very good chance

of just working as is on SL4.

Thanks in advance,

Dimitris
