I'm not sure how you intended this, but it reads like there's some
cabal hiding setup details from you. This is not at all the case. ;)
I'm happy to gather information about or relate information about our
setup to anyone who asks.
If you can think of places we could document things better, please do
add the details there.
Sorry I didn't mean to imply this was hidden.
There are some oddities due to running RHEL on builders, but I would
call it a pretty corner set of cases, not something to panic about.
Actually the worse case is EPEL 6 / RHEL 6 which seem to use a RHEL 5
kernel. I have to use an LD_PRELOAD hack to get things to to run
there [attached]. The issue wasn't with the LD_PRELOAD hack itself
which is quite small, but with the amount of days I spent debugging
this.
Rich.
