.rpm installation

Deprecated Deadline 6 Bug Reports
#1

First off, loving that you guys are adding .rpm files for installation :smiley:

However, after installing the latest RC (RC2) via the new .rpm package, the shell script wrappers around the deadline binaries are broken:

ie: deadlinelauncher contains

#!/bin/sh export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/var/tmp/deadline_client-buildroot/opt/Thinkbox/Deadline/Deadline_5/bin exec mono /var/tmp/deadline_client-buildroot/opt/Thinkbox/Deadline/Deadline_5/bin/deadlinelauncher.exe "$@"

It looks like the ‘/var/tmp/deadline_client-buildroot’ bit of the path got accidentally left in when bundling things up.

Also, is ‘/opt/Thinkbox/Deadline/Deadline_X’ the new default install location, replacing ‘/usr/local/Thinkbox/Deadline’ from previous builds?

Cheers!

Hey Matt,

Thanks for giving it a try! We still consider these beta, and there is a good chance they might not get released at the same time as 5.1, but hopefully we can iron out all the issues soon so we can release them at some point. :slight_smile:

We’ll take a look at this path problem and try to get new ones up soon. Also, we will probably continue to install to /opt in these packages, but continue to default to /usr/local in the installer. As for the /Deadline/Deadline_# folder structure, we should be changing that to just /Deadline.

Cheers,
