And possibly supply it to one of the main repositories too? :-) Would it be possible to supply this package as an ubuntu package as well as an RPM one?

And possibly supply it to one of the main repositories too?

Sorry I haven't responded sooner but have been traveling. I found the editor I use unhelpfully turns two short hyphens into one longer one! I'll watch out for that in future - I hope it didn't cause too much grief - thanks for pointing this out Mipam. Thanks to Pavel for the tip regarding the libraries that arcconf uses and the dynamic linker. Thanks for the suggestions and corrections. Sorry I haven’t responded sooner but have been traveling.

Thanks to Pavel for the tip regarding the libraries that arcconf uses and the dynamic linker.

Just one suggestion. If you want use arcconf from /usr/StorMan, it's necessary to put line "/usr/StorMan" into /etc/ld.so.conf and then run ldconfig. Arcconf uses bundled library libstdc++.so.5. Tested on Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy. Thanks a lot for this article.

Why was my comment about it not working been deleted? Another point your line containing : sudo alien –scripts asm_linux_x86_v5_20_17414.rpm should be: sudo alien –-scripts asm_linux_x86_v5_20_17414.rpm This procedure doesn’t work.
