Does anybody know if terabithia.org is still maintaining Fedora RPMs for xymon?? I exchanged emails with Japheth over half a year ago, but have not received any replies to more recent inquiries; RPMs for Fedora 31 are not working and for 32 are missing altogether; the latest changes in Testing are from early May.

Alternatively, does anyone know of another repo with Fedora 31 or 32 RPMs for xymon?

Same experience with much older emails myself.

Not working?  Hmmn, news to me ...

root at vm-fed ~]# cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora release 31 (Thirty One)

[root at vm-fed ~]# rpm -q xymon-client xymon-client-local
xymon-client-4.3.30-1.fc31.x86_64
xymon-client-local-4.3.30-1.fc31.x86_64

Oh yeah, now I remember - Japheth built some weird (unnecessary?) dependency upon "/bin/dash" into the Fedora 31 RPMs that I couldn't get to resolve, even though "/bin/dash" existed.

I kludged around it via this temporary hack (I'll take "working" over "efficiency" any day):

and rebuilding the RPMs from the spec file.

(Hopefully this will drag him out of the woodwork to berate me for doing this.)
