RT2 Alpha 4

I’m proud to announce the release of RT2 Alpha 4. (tagged as RT 1.3.41).

This release features signficant stabilization relative to alpha 3.
A full CLI admin tool has been written. ACLs are now enforced throughout
the system. Various things have been prettified. It just generally
works much better than alpha 3 did.

If you’re the daring sort, you can suck down the release from

ftp://ftp.fsck.com/pub/rt/devel/

and play around.

If you want to see what’s still on our todo list for 2.0, check out

database) at http://fsck.com/rt2/NoAuth/Buglist.html

    Thanks,
    Jesse

I look forward to trying it out, and I really dig the automated-CPAN
trick for getting Perl modules installed… but I can’t seem to get
HTML::Mason to install. Is that going to hold up everything, or should I
proceed setting up the “Beta RT Rig” anyway?

A REAL sysadmin challenge is “resurrect five dead mailserver while so ripped
to the gills on mdma that you can’t focus on any given line of text for more
than 10 seconds continuously.”

You absolutely need mason for the webui. how is it failing to install?

I watched much more carefully this time: During the attempt to install
MLDBM to satisfy Mason, the ‘freezethaw’ portion of ‘make test’ failed.
I haven’t figured out a way around this yet, but I’m still poking at it
(when I have time). I’m leery of forcing the install of MLDBM, so I’m
just going to wait for an answer of some sort. :wink:

cd ~root/.cpan/build

there should be a copy of the MLDBM source sitting there. try an install
by hand and tell me what happens.

Oddly enough ‘make install’ worked just fine. I guess it’s the ‘make
test’ that wasn’t happy, and in CPAN-land you’re kind of stuck at that
point. I have MLDBM and HTML::Mason installed… we’ll see if they break
later on this afternoon, when I’ve got the RT"2" test system running. I
have stdout/stderr output from the ‘make test’ for MLDBM if you want
'em, but they’re probably not really your problem. If it works… I’m
happy.
