Andrew,

(Replying back to the original thread and re-posting to the main list to
keep in context. Also removing extra CC:s.)

Your issue is not listed in the tickets output because it does not
appear to be a bug in the software, nor is it a development issue.

Am I right in thinking you're not familiar with administering a Red Hat
system? You should use your operating system's package tools to install
the strace package.

Do you have a test system that you could also install bbstored onto to
verify it works somewhere else? Perhaps if you had experience of setting
up a new server rather than trying to work out someone else's setup it
would help you.

I hope this helps.

James
