I sent the following several weeks ago and received no response. Clearly Red Hat knows the process to create these RPMs. Can a Red Hat employee let me know what this process is? Thanks. Tim Moloney wrote:
I'm experiencing a chicken'n'egg problem with several RPMs. If I rebuild the comps and rpmdb RPMs after running genhdlist --withnumbers --fileorder ... the installation fails stating that there was a problem with the rpmdb RPM. If I don't rebuild the comps and rpmdb RPMs then the installation is successful but the comps and rpmdb RPMs don't contain the correct information about the RPMs on the CD. Exactly how and when should I rebuild these RPMs? I've searched the list archives and read several HOWTOs including http://tldp.org/HOWTO/RedHat-CD-HOWTO/ http://www.linuxworks.com.au/redhat-installer-howto.html I don't see any instructions on how and when these RPMs are rebuilt. Any tips or pointers to relavent documentation would be greatly appreciated.
