        Which RC version are you running exactly? What versions have you been running?

        I'm not seeing errors on any version I have here installing the watchdog package.

            The most recent available I assume?

            What other packages do you have installed?

                Ok. Were those errors generated during the upgrade process or when trying to install the package into 2.4.4-rc afterwards?

                Srece

                        That is fixed now so upgrading to 2.4.4 will also pull in the corrected package. If you see any other errors from the service watchdog, note the full error message here.

                          Upgraded to 2.4.4 release, the service watchdog is no problem now.
