It seems you're trying to install the agent on the WAPT server itself, right? Currently, the two packages aren't compatible; you have to install either the agent or the server. We'll look into fixing this in a future version, probably 1.8.2.

You can try installing it on another Linux machine; you shouldn't encounter the problem.

Sincerely,

Denis

Hello,

Yes, indeed... I thought the agent had to be installed on the server to be recognized by other repositories... my mistake then, it was a misunderstanding.

Thank you very much
