Resolution
The IDM installer is removing the 8.8.8 XDAS files and laying down older 887 files. These files must be replaced.
Workaround:
1. Stop eDirectory.
2. Go to the \Linux64 folder of patch directory.
3. Upgrade the following 8.8.7 rpms with the rpm upgrade option, by using the -Uvh switch:
novell-edirectory-expat-32bit-8.8.7-1.x86_64
novell-edirectory-expat-8.8.7-1.x86_64
novell-edirectory-xdaslog-conf-8.8.7-1.noarch
novell-edirectory-xdaslog-32bit-8.8.7-1.x86_64
novell-edirectory-xdaslog-8.8.7-1.x86_64

novell-edirectory-xdaslog-32bit-8.8.7-1.x86_64
novell-edirectory-xdaslog-8.8.7-1.x86_64
