Installation procedure does not work correctly on
SUSE Linux enterprise server (SLES)
This problem affects Eloquence B.06.32 and B.07.00.
Eloquence verifies the content of /etc/SuSE-release
file to check for the SUSE linux version. The same Eloquence
rpm archive could be installed on differed SUSE versions.
However this file has a slighly different content on the
SUSE Enterprise server product.
As a consequence, the Eloquence installation procedure assumes
an old SUSE Linux release and may fail to setup some configuration
files properly.
As a workaround you should backup the file /etc/SuSE-release
and modify its content temporarily before installing Eloquence.
The Eloquence installation procedure expects the first line of
the /etc/SuSE-release file to look like below:
SuSE Linux x.y (platform)
VERSION = x.y
The SLES 8 version has the following content:
SuSE SLES-8 (i386)
VERSION = x.y
After the installation has finished, please restore the previous
content.
