I've noticed there are usually inst conflicts when trying to install inperson on 6.5.30. I like the application and want it, but I don't see it on my 6.5 Applications CDROM image (did I overlook it or is it part of another package?). Here's what trying looks like:

# cat RELEASE.info

This CD contains the following products:
