On my rhel 6 system ./Makepkgs works as expected.  On upgrade to
the build rpms the startup could not find pmwebd

[root@carenath rpm]# rpm -U pcp-3.8.0-1.x86_64.rpm

[root@carenath rpm]# grep pmwebd /etc/init.d/*
Returns nothing.

On sles 11 (sp2 to be specific) Makepgs builds rpms (once I installed 
python-devel).
The rpms fail to freshen because
labyrinth:/home/jhanson/pcp-3.8.0/build/rpm # rpm -Fv *.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        initscripts is needed by pcp-3.8.0-1.x86_64
        python-ctypes is needed by pcp-3.8.0-1.x86_64

There is no rpm for initscripts on sles (this is a rhel rpm).  If I believe
http://python.net/crew/theller/ctypes/ there is no need for a python-ctypes
rpm (nor is there one in sles or the sdk) in python 2.6 (which is what
I have on sles).  Installation with --nodeps gives similar issue with pmwebd

These issues do not affect pmgsys from being able to talk to pmcd.

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill;
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose freewill. - Lee/Lifeson/Peart
