N.B. It is assumed that you are installing the latest version of 3.4. Earlier versions may have issues not listed here.

Previous issues

xpdf Deb package no longer exists 
This has been removed as a dependency since EPrints 3.4.3, as it is no longer specifically required by EPrints.
MySQL deprecated syntax 
GRANT PRIVILEGES command used by epadmin has been modified to avoid using deprecated syntax since EPrints 3.4.3.
MySQL root user cannot be used 
This is now explained under EPrints' Getting Started instructions. as it is typically for most modern Linux operating systems.
