From a clean SuSE 9.1 Pro distribution (latest updates), if I install the FirebirdSS-1.5.1.4481-0.i686.rpm using YaST, right at the end of the install YaST appears to hang, and
Hi, There seems to be a small issue with the install of Firebird 1.5.1 RPM using YaST. I have not seen this problem with any other RPM's installed via YaST. I tried posting to the Firebird support group first but got no response. the only fix I've found is to kill the y2base process. Note that the Firebird install is successful, I can see the fbguard and fbserver processes, and can connect to the example db, and everything comes up fine after a restart, it's just YaST can't close itself after the install. Is anyone able to confirm/deny this problem? RPM is here: http://tinyurl.com/4sp9g (I tried both NPTL and non-NPTL) Also, I'm shifting my development environment from Windows to Linux, and am still very much feeling my way around, so can anyone please tell me if I should be using the NPTL version of Firebird with the SuSE 9.1 Pro distribution? (I found documentation stating SuSE 9 Enterprise uses NPTL, but not for 9.1 Pro) Thanks for any help. peace - si sshnug.com
