I've installed the RPMs on the ftp site for RedHat 5.2 and it
seems to work fine (don't use upgrade, erase and reinstall), it's
much faster than the monkey-job in 29 steps described in the
installation procedure.

I found out that the package "client" has been splitted in
several parts (perl, tcl, ...)

I had several regression error due to a different sorting
result (case-sensitive or not). Any idea ?

Thanks
