Stephane,

BUGS:

==========================
 Here is the contents of the startup file that was placed in /usr/bin:  (/usr/bin/openerp-server)
 --------------------------
#!/bin/sh
cd /var/tmp/openerp-server-5.0.0-0_rc3_00001686-buildroot/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/openerp-server
exec /usr/bin/python ./openerp-server.py $@
 --------------------------

 But, the 'cd' directory doesn't look right.  I think it should be /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/openerp-server

 Probably taken from RPM_BUILD_ROOT.

 I'm going to manually edit it before starting the server.

 ==========================

I created an RPM for the client and installed it.  Installation looked fine except for same buildroot path in /usr/bin/openerp-client.  I changed it to point to /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/openerp-client.

 So now I start the server and the client and try creating a new database in the client but I get this error:

Stuck here.

==========================
noticed that in the About, it shows:
 OpenERP - GTK Client - v5.0.0

 It should be showing:
 OpenERP - GTK Client - v5.0.0-0_rc3_00000925

 Just a small thing needing fixed with new VERSION-RELEASE stuff.

==========================
An issue on the client with pixmaps:

$ find /usr/share/openerp-client/
/usr/share/openerp-client/
/usr/share/openerp-client/win_error.glade
/usr/share/openerp-client/dia_survey.glade
/usr/share/openerp-client/tipoftheday.txt
/usr/share/openerp-client/openerp.glade

And I see this error when starting client:
$ openerp-client
(openerp-client.py:14939): libglade-WARNING **: Error loading image: Failed to open file '/usr/share/openerp-client/pixmaps/openerp_logo.png': No such file or directory
(openerp-client.py:14939): libglade-WARNING **: could not convert string to type `GdkPixbuf' for property `pixbuf'

==========================
 When you start the server it shows this:

 [root@grp-01-30-51 openerp-server]# openerp-server --db_host 192.168.1.230 -r terp5 -w "" -d terp5

[Tue Feb 03 2009 22:38:15] INFO:web-services:the server is running, waiting for connections...

 I think that maybe the version line should also show the 'release' as well so that it would report something like this:
[Tue Feb 03 2009 22:38:15] INFO:server:version - 5.0.0
[Tue Feb 03 2009 22:38:15] INFO:server:release -  0_rc3_00001686

OR
[Tue Feb 03 2009 22:38:15] INFO:server:version - 5.0.0-0_rc3_00001686

==========================
With the client, I had to comment out the "check_modules()" call otherwise it gave me an error about DISPLAY.  Of course, I don't know what ramifications that might cause.

==========================


Also, I sent several emails to you, check your mail.
