Re: [Condor-users] Condor for RHEL 5

[Matthew Farrellee <matt@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Unless you care about the Standard Universe -- not to be confused with 
the feature that lets Condor run effectively any program, but the 
feature that lets you do checkpointing and remote system calls -- then 
you should be fine with either static or dynamic binaries.

The RPMs you are looking at do not have dependency information in them, 
because there shouldn't be any dependencies.

You should download the dynamic version, and if you need the Standard 
Universe, test it. Chances are it will work if you are on RHEL or a clone.

Best,
