Installation fails on Mandriva 2007.1

[keefobeefo]

I'm a Zimbra newbie - I've downloaded the binary packages (4.5.9) for Mandriva linux but when I tried to run the install.sh script I got errors, as follows:

Checking for prerequisites...
NPTL...FOUND
sudo...FOUND sudo-1.6.8p12-6mdv2007.1
libidn...MISSING
curl...FOUND curl-7.16.0-9mdv2007.1
fetchmail...MISSING
gmp...MISSING
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5...FOUND

I managed to fix the above by editing the get_plat_tags.sh script and adding an option for Mandriva 2007 (identical to that for Mandriva 2006) then moving the Mandriva checks to the top of the file. However, install.sh then gives me the following:

Found zimbra-core
Error: attempting to install i386 packages on a unknown OS.
Exiting...

Does anyone have any fixes or ideas about how to resolve this?

Regds.

Hi Keef-
Mucking up the installer is not good for Zimbra.

Can you move to a supported OS? If not, then I would suggest building from source.

Also, it should be noted that in 5.0 we will be dropping support for Mandriva.
