I've had no luck in finding anything regarding cross-compiling rpm. (That is, building rpm to execute on another platform. I am currently able to cross-package rpms using rpm.)
(How do you tell Google you want information about rpm-the-program instead of rpm packages? I can't seem to get into the list archives despite being subscribed and having cookies turned on for redhat.com... Grrrr.)
I'm trying to compile rpm 4.1 for arm-linux, but getting compile errors while it builds popt. I have cross-built popt-1.4 as a separate package (which creates libpopt.{a,la} and popt.h). Is there a way to use that instead, or something? Or is that path rife with its own tribulations?
(I believe I got similar problems with rpm 4.2, but I'd have to double-check to be certain.)
Pointers to any information would be appreciated.
