So far, such mechanism > doesn't exist. You should be able to force rpm to lay down the files, given enough override-switches. Something like # rpm -Uvh --root /usr/ppc-redhat/sys-root --ignorearch --noscripts *.rpm (or alternatively --relocate with --badrelocate instead of --root, if you want the packages showing in system rpmdb instead of alternate root, and then you'd /really/ need arch-specific buildrequires which in turn is another can of worms etc) ...but the resulting pile of files is likely to be fairly useless since no scripts are executed. Having some way of executing scriptlets in an emulator (eg qemu) might be an interesting experiment actually ;) - Panu - -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
