HCL Sametime Forum : Sametime 8.0.2 client on Ubuntu 8.04

I did this, replacing the the original install.sh with my own rewritten.
I have ubuntu 8.04 totally updated by 2009-04-25.
It should work with both install and uninstall.
I have only tested this with the sametime-connect-8.0.2-1.i586.rpm downloaded from a 8.0.2 server with the network install.
After you have dowloaded and unpacked it create a new file in the same directory and name it debinstall.sh.

1. sudo su
2. got to the directory where you the sametime-connect-8.0.2-1.i586.rpm file
3. sudo ./debinstall.sh install

The file is hardcoded for sametime-connect-8.0.2-1.i586.rpm if you have something and want to test this change it.
To uninstall use sudo ./debinstall.sh uninstall

Here is the code to use in debinstall.sh:
#!/bin/bash

# The script is to used to install/uninstall Sametime Connect 8.0.2
# Two correct ways to run this script by root:
# (1) #debinstall.sh
# or
# #debinstall.sh install
# to run installation process
# (2) #debinstall.sh uninstall
# to run un-installation process
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:$PATH; export PATH
