That's pretty normal behavior, actually. RHEL5 (32 and 64 bit) reports this as
well.
Bastille has been developed for older versions of RHEL. A newer version of the
OS
has been published/released, but Bastille hasn't yet been updated.
Do make sure you've got a compatible version of Perl-Tk installed along with
bastille.

Below is the exact error that I got when I ran Bastille on FC7 and RHEL5.

The tool is still being actively developed and supported. 3.09 is indeed the
latest verion (found here: http://bastille-linux.sourceforge.net/index.html)
Can you give a little bit more info about how this isn't working on later
versions of Linux? (like an error message, etc)

Hi,
I was looking for a Linux hardening tool. I found Bastille. The latest =
version
that I was able to find is 3.09. I cannot seem to get this = version to work on
later versions of Linux (RHEL 5, FC 6,7) = distributions.
Is this tool still being supported? Is there a similar tool out there?
Thanks in advance,
JP
