I am trying to install IBM DB2 client on my Arch box. Install program is a 700 line shell script which uses RPM commands to install the actual software with various switches. Using an RPM converter is not really an option, so...
I am trying to install RPM program itself from source. The make process bombs with an error:
gcc -D_GNU_SOURCE -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I... -Wall -Werror -g -02 -D_GNUSOURCE -D_REENTRANT ... -Wmissing-prototypes ... next_prime.c:43: warning no previous protype for next_prime
Do I need to update the gcc lib? Any help would be greatly appreciated. -Alec[/code]

you can install rpmunpack from the repos. I turns it into a cpio. From there it can be tar or gunzipped or something like that...haven't really messed with it to much.

That's a warning... try removing the -Werror part... it might still compile... *shrug*

Thank you for the link to the package, however it requires elfutils as a dependency. I cannot find elfutils. Do you have a link to that one as well? -Alec

I found elfutils on the above ftp link and the rpm package installed swimingly. THANK YOU! -Alec
