I don't see any reason why yum-arch would give you problems on debian (you might be able to run it on windows). Yum can be installed from tarball [1] with the standard ./configure; make; make install. You may need to play around to install under /usr/local or whatever. Alternatively, you could run yum-arch on a different machine and just copy the resulting headers directory to the debian box. An even better option might be to consider mirroring from a site that is already yumified, such as mirror.dulug.duke.edu or downloads.fedora.us. This will remove the need to run yum-arch at all. - Ryan [1] http://linux.duke.edu/projects/yum/download/2.0/yum-2.0.4.tar.gz On Wed, 2003-11-19 at 20:11, Jim Perrin wrote: > Forgive the heresy of the question, but I am curious to know if anyone here > has yum (specifically yum-arch) working on debian.
