fc5t2 - no selected packages - rpm fails / not yum(my)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On a low resource notebook, during gui installation all packages were unselected (including "base system"). The install completes, and reboots, with text only login as expected. [used about 390MB of disk space, 720MB free.]

1. #yum
 command not found
ie, not installed. Including yum would make for much easier dep resolution as you add the particular packages that you want to the minimal install. How much bigger would absolute minimum be if yum (and :. dependencies) were included when no packages groups are selected ?

Perhaps a group called "base operating system" (that can't be unselected - it is the absolute minimum requirement for a booting kernel) with the following options:
rpm  rpm-libs  yum  mc  ftp  ssh  slocate
would be appreciated by similar minded folks ?

2. #rpm
rpm: error while loading shared libraries: librpm-4.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
#ls -l /usr/lib/librp*
  No such file or directory.
#ls -l /bin/rpm
-rwxr-xr-x 1 rpm rpm 83732 Jan 10 02:20 /bin/rpm

manually copying on librpm-4.4.so, then librpmdb-4.4.so, then librpmio-4.4.so, then librpmbuild-4.4.so from a FC4 system has got rpm operating.

 # rpm -qa|grep rpm
rpm-4.4.2-12
but
doesn't rpm need rpm-libs ?

Without a working rpm, much harder to put packages on... Is this known or needs bz'ing ?
