Bastille and Fedora 7


Hi All,

Has anyone tried running Bastille on Fedora 7?
I've installed the RPM from http://bastille-linux.sourceforge.net without any errors, gone to run the assessment report and got the following error.

Code:
ERROR: Could not determine Fedora version! Setting to Fedora Core 5
The report seems to run through fine, but I haven't gone and applied anything just yet.

Anyone know how I can get it to detect the correct version...the Bastille website mentions it runs on Fedora, but doesn't specify versions.

Does Fedora 7 have the version in /etc/issue and in /etc/redhat-release and /etc/fedora-release?

If not possibly adding it there would help. (It may be that it doesn't know the version so defaults.) Since 7 and 5 are both 2.6 kernels choosing 5 might be sufficient.

Examples from an FC4 and an FC6 system:
FC4:
cat /etc/issue
Fedora Core release 4 (Stentz)
Kernel \r on an \m

cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora Core release 4 (Stentz)

cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora Core release 4 (Stentz)

FC6:
cat /etc/issue
Fedora Core release 6 (Zod)
Kernel \r on an \m

cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora Core release 6 (Zod)

cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora Core release 6 (Zod)

Hi jlightner,

All 3 of those files exist and contain the relevant information.
I might shoot off an e-mail to the dev team and see what comes of it.

Cheers,
