perfsonar development work

[Mario Reale <>]

Hi Roman,

On my Fedora Core 9 the system has a newer version of that library  ( 
namely /usr/lib/librrd.so.4 )

So my naive question is now:
why the rrdjtool has been packaged such that it requires      
librrd.so.2 and not  librrd.so.X  X>=2  ?

Missing Dependency: librrd.so.2 is needed by package 
rrdjtool-1.0-1.i386 (perfsonar-i386)


[root@srv4
 yum.repos.d]# rpm -qf /usr/lib/librrd.so.2
file /usr/lib/librrd.so.2 is not owned by any package

[root@srv4
 yum.repos.d]# ls /usr/lib/librrd.so.2
/usr/lib/librrd.so.2


On your system you have   rrdtool-1.2.23-3.fc7  while I have    
rrdtool-1.3.3-1.fc9.i386, providing a newer version of that libray
