Hi all
AFAICS there are packages for RHEL7, but not RHEL8. Installing on Debian was pretty straight forward, while RHEL was a PITA requiring perl libs from CPAN.
Is RHEL8 "supported" or what is the case now?
RHEL8 or Debian?

Re: RHEL8 or Debian?
Hi,
you are talking about znuny lts? The requirements are here
https://doc.znuny.org/doc/manual/admin/ ... quirements
so any (!) Linux with the requirements fulfilled, which are mentioned in the doc is "supported" but that is an definition of "supprted"
It will run fine.
It is independent if you use linux distribution package manager or cpan or you build your own packages.
the first one is just "easier"

I know it works on "anything, really" - I just wondered why there aren't any packages for rhel8 while there are on rhel7.

Hi,
If you're using the Debian packages it's easy to install, but the completely rearrange the files to have it this way. You might have no issues except you start with medium to heavy customization.
Installing Znuny on RHEL7 or 8 does not require any compiled CPAN module for the require modules. The only one I know that needs to be installed this way is optional: Jq
Use the distribution where you're comfortable with and which you know well.
The reason why there are no RHEL8 packages is really simple: there were no spec file for this version when Znuny forked the OTRS repository. And, at least for me this is true, it doesn't really take more time to perform a patchlevel update with a .tar.gz archive than with an rpm. The most work is always everything else than updating the file withyum/dnf.
Maybe you like to provide this change with a pull request?

Re: RHEL8 or Debian?
I had to install Unicode::Collate::Locale from CPAN, though. Is this really packaged for rhel8?
