[system>archiving] rpm

tehdely · 2004-04-01 09:43:01

Ah, now this one's a doozy. Before someone gets off on the wrong foot and thinks I'm advocating RPM or something... I'm not.

It just so happens that a lot of crap is distributed as RPMs, and sometimes rpmunpack isn't up to snuff. Also, certain installers (ICC, ATI drivers, etc.) require that you use RPMs to install. There are also programs like Alien which convert between package formats and require the particular package systems to be present in order to do so.

Therefore, here is RPM. Enjoy the PKGBUILD... I adapted it a bit from Gentoo's ebuild, the rpm.spec available inside the source rpm, and a bit from some good old-fashioned American ingenuity.

I am glade you made it. Year ago I uploaded rpm in incoming (still there) but was poorly compiled from binaries and also didn't work properly.

I will update AIR to link the rpm to this topic.

/usr/bin/makepkg: line 20: rpmunpack: command not found
rpm-4.2-1.cpio.gz: No such file or directory

what now?

arael · 2004-04-06 12:06:29

oh sorry ...

shouldn't be that somewhere in deps ?

tehdely · 2004-04-07 01:21:30

Oops, that should be in makedepends.

Just install rpmunpack.

Note: you'll also need elfutils, which I threw in incoming and which conflicts with the 'libelf' that's currently in pacman. Hopefully it's on its way into the tree (it deprecates libelf).

I've got python ... . What is wrong?

Where can i get elf utils? I can only find them in rpm format...

Get it at ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/incoming - i just downloaded it yesterday

Posted RPM5 PKGbuild into AUR. This is designed to be a dependency for yum so one can create RPM respos to be served from Archlinux using yum-createrepo, also in AUR. Enjoy

sharkoslinux - I think you've set a new record. This thread is close to five years old.

I'm closing this now. For future reference - please do not post in any thread that has been inactive for six months or more.
