Topic: Updated from 7.5.1 to 8.6 but I have ?'s

[nospam]

I recently updated a 7.5.1 version to 8.6 using the cd install method. The previous installation was clean but did include a kronolith calendar addon which seems to be read-only for ical access despite the permissions thus my motivation to update.

Things went pretty well but it did seem that I do have a few questions.

After installing I got some errors when doing yum update. Specifically with some dependencies which I skipped by using --skip-broken option. Should I be concerned about the PHP issue?

Error: Missing Dependency: php-common = 5.1.6-32.el5 is needed by package php-pgsql-5.1.6-32.el5.i386 (base)


I was motivated to do so because I wanted a newer revision of horde.
In looking at the ./home/httpd/html/horde/README it appears that the version is

:Last update:   $Date: 2007-12-20 15:01:20 $
:Revision:      $Revision: 2.13.10.2 $
:Contact:       horde@lists.horde.org

It appears that this is older than any version documented in http://www.horde.org/apps/horde/docs/UPGRADING so is this the correct version running on SME 8.6b?
If so is there a good reason I wouldn't want to attempt updating horde? If so what are the actual steps for this particular version?

Thanks in advance

It should "Just work". If it doesn't, please report your issues via the bug tracker. Use the "BUGS" link above.

It works but i don'tseem to have the ability to write to a shared calendar unless i use the web interface. It does look like a dated version of horde.

This bug may give you some clues re how to resolve your dependency issues.
It's not exactly your situation, but similar

http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6875

This is an example of a good reason for reporting a bug, others can benefit from the findings later, apart from the obvious benefit of any immediate fix being made available.

If your issue is with upgrading, report a bug against that.
Upgrades to sme8 should work without errors, and where practically & technically possible, the process should take into account various scenarios that users have on their servers.

If your issue is with Horde, then report a seperate bug against that.
