== Known Issues in 1.6 ==

*Cartographer agent does not yet support new service control architectures on Solaris and Linux
* XMP library port to Python is still needed
* MIB-2 plugin not yet ported to Solaris 11
* Some default installations of 64-bit Linux do not automatically include 32-bit versions of libxml, libz, and libgcc and thus need to be installed by hand. On Redhat/Fedora 64-bit systems, one can add them very simply by executing the following command:
<pre>
yum install libxml2.i386 libgcc.i386
</pre>
* Some default installations of 64-bit Linux do not automatically include a 32-bit libgcc_s which is required by pthreads_cancel(). If not present, the library can be installed by hand.
<pre>
yum install libgcc.i386
</pre>
*Cartographer Agent Windows installer can create a second system tray entry on upgrade.
