Hi Mikevl,
I think these packages are part of the Legacy Software Tools that are part of the list of what packages to select when installing Linux for your Scalix server. If you are running the GUI on your Linux box select System Tools/Add Remove programs scroll down and select the Legacy Software Tools Check box.
On page 13 of the Installation guide you will see the following...
Qualifications for a Red Hat Linux installation
The system onto which you are installing Scalix Server is a dedicated messaging server. As aresult, selecting Everything in the Package Group Selection window during the installation of Red Hat Linux can severely reduce overall system performance. Installing a large number of packages causes excessive use of disk space and results in numerous processes running on the system that can interfere with the efficiency, security, and scalability of the e-mail server. Scalix Corporation recommends installing only the package groups listed below. With the exception of Tomcat and Java J2SE, these package groups contain all the required packages (RPMs) along with their respective software dependencies.
1 During the installation of Red Hat Linux, select Customize selection of packages to
be installed and click Next.
2 When the Package Group Selection pane appears, select only the following package
groups:
• X Window System
• KDE Desktop Environment or GNOME Desktop Environment (or both)
• Graphical Internet
• Text-based Internet
• Server Configurations Tools
• Network Servers (also, select Details, then select krb5-server)
• Web Server
• Development Tools
• Kernel Development
• Legacy Software Tools
• Administration Tools
• System Tools
3 You can complete the installation at this point.
Regards,
Don
