Re: [PacketFence-devel] IPC mechanism in PF 5.2/devel

[Boris E. <bor...@gm...>]

Louis,

Thanks. Looks like specifically removing the packetfence-pfcmd and
packetfence-config packages - and then reinstalling everything from scratch
by running

yum install packetfence  --enablerepo=packetfence-devel

took care of things. What I found weird was not that the path may have been
misconfigured but that the actual .pm file for the package was MIA for some
reason.

At any rate, I seem to be making progress now.

Thanks.

Boris.
