Re: [Networker] Networker client for Linux Redhat 8.0

Try
Solution
create a symbolic link as follows:

ln -s /usr/lib/nsr /lib/nsr

or for those who prefer relative symlinks:

cd /lib ; ln -s ../usr/lib/nsr

this does not make any sense (AFAIK) since 6.x and 7.x do not have a
/lib/nsr, but something in 8.0 has changed (perhaps a libpath or
something in RPM?) which makes the client post installation script want
to install to and execute from  /lib/nsr rather than /usr/lib/nsr

I have been running RH 8.0 as a server and client in our backup
development environment for the past 1.5 months, the above problem being
the only issue I have encountered

We had the same problem. We have installed ncurses4 and now we have the
problem:

Redhat 8.0

1  LGTOclnt     NetWorker for Linux (Backup/Recover) Client
                6.1.3.Build.428


++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 ./NWinstall

This appears to be an attempt to install the same architecture and
version of a package which is already installed.

of course rmdir is the right version of redhat:

++
rmdir --version
rmdir (fileutils) 4.1.9
++

we have try to force the installation, remove the rpm, etc... the error
messages appear always

I have look the archive, I haven't find the solution.

Thank for your help,

regards,
