9 January 2009 - 13:40Request Tracker 3.8.2 on gentoo

We finally managed to release a package for the (currently) recent version of Best Practical’s Request Racker (rt). We added it to our layman / portage overlay. see the following article for information on how to add it to your portage tree.

Additional Notes:

• There are several packages which are masked at the moment. We do not know what they do to your system.
• The additional dev-perl/Encode is an rt dependency which probably will override some files originally owned by perl itself.
• The USE flag “fastcgi” seems to be mandatory. In other words, rt won’t compile if you don’t set this flag.
• As you might have realized by now, the whole thing is still under development so please be very careful with you system. We do not grant for anything.
