perfsonar development work

[Hans Trompert <>]

Hi,

I was trying to install the ps-mdm-flowsa-ma from downloads.perfsonar.eu 
with yum on a cleanly installed Fedora 9 system with the perfSONAR 
repository enabled, and noticed the following unresolved dependency:

java-1.6.0-sun-compat-1.6.0.06-1jpp.i586 from perfsonar-i386 has depsolving 
problems
  --> Missing Dependency: jdk = 2000:1.6.0_06-fcs is needed by package 
java-1.6.0-sun-compat-1.6.0.06-1jpp.i586 (perfsonar-i386)

But when I disable the perfSONAR repository and do a yum localinstall of 
the ps-mdm-flowsa-ma and nfdump rpm's after downloading them first, yum 
decides to use java-1.5.0-gcj that comes with Fedora 9, and everything 
works just fine.

I know that Fedora is one of the unsupported platforms, and on a RHEL 5.2 
system everything just seem to work as expected, when I try to install 
ps-mdm-flowsa-ma with the perfSONAR repository enabled yum decides to use 
the java-1.4.2-gcj-compat that comes with RHEL 5.2.

I am not an dependencies specialist, but is there an easy way to fix the 
dependencies so a repository install will work again on Fedora?

Cheers,
