I tried yaourt -S rpm. It is giving me some errors. Can you please help?

The latest development release doesn't build - see comments on the AUR page: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16857

Do you need it for any particular reason?

I am trying to install Oracle into my arch system.

I downloaded the file.

[srikanth@myhost Downloads]$ sudo pacman -U rpm.tar.gz 
Password: 
error: missing package metadata in rpm.tar.gz
error: 'rpm.tar.gz': invalid or corrupted package
[srikanth@myhost Downloads]$ sudo yaourt -U rpm.tar.gz 
error: missing package metadata in rpm.tar.gz
error: 'rpm.tar.gz': invalid or corrupted package

It's not an Arch package, it's just some tarball. If you downloaded it from the AUR, you have to build it first.

karol · 2012-01-20 09:53:45

Have you read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ar … Repository ?
Which Oracle app are you trying to install exactly?

In these situations, I don't really understand the logic, why not just use an RPM based distribution? Or if you enjoy Arch, why not take the time to learn pacman and the AUR?
...Or as karol has asked, essentially why do you need RPM for a package?

Anyway, not meaning to be offensive; I'm just genuinely curious as to the reasoning.
