Problem: trace.firmwaretools

[Flaherty, Patrick]

Since I ended up on the list anyways, maybe ole Michael can get someone
else to do some work.....

I've been using the following script to install, which I had stolen from
http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Repository/firmware  

# set up repos
wget -q -O - http://localmirror.com/repo/hardware/bootstrap.cgi | bash
wget -q -O - http://localmirror.com/repo/software/bootstrap.cgi | bash
wget -q -O - http://localmirror.com/repo/firmware/bootstrap.cgi | bash
 
 #install OMSA software
 yum -y install srvadmin-all

 # install firmware tools
 yum -y install firmware-addon-dell

 # install BIOS update
 yum -y install $(bootstrap_firmware -b)  update_firmware

Which has always worked, but now I'm seeing a traceback complaining
about trace.firmwaretools. Im running centos 4.6. My local mirror has
been synced in the last 48 hours (You can only run it once a day as far
as I can tell). This was the first OMSA install on this machine, errors
occurred at the end of the script. Machine is a PE2950.

rpm -qa | grep dell
dell-hw-indep-repository-1-15
dell-hw-specific-repository-1-13.el4
dell-unsupported-repository-1-4.el4
dell-firmware-repository-1-4

Any ideas?

Patrick
