Hi,
Sometimes I want to install Sentinel to CentOS (e.g no hassle with licensing in labs).
Sentinel 7.4 series run fine in Centos 6.x. Would developers make Sentinel 8 CentOS 7 compatible with following little tweak:
Could developers compile novell-Sentineldb-RHEL-8.0.0.0-xxx.x86_64.rpm with following change in the SPEC file? I rebuilt the rpm with the new value and it installed fine in both CentOS 7 and RHEL 7.
Change:
"Requires: libpython2.6.so.1.0()(64bit)"
to
"Requires: libpython2.7.so.1.0()(64bit)"
Now SPEC file requirement is pointing to a genuine file, because libpython2.6.so.1.0 is a symlink to libpython2.7.so.1.0 in both distros. I understand that CentOS is not the supported platform, but this adds value to the product.

Timo, thanks for submitting this idea. We will look it over and let you know what our thoughts are. Or we may ask for additional information.
I wish this feature could be done, because amount of work is minimal and does not even require new test set for CentOS (because not officially supported platform). Now deploying a quick lab server is quite difficult.
