All,
I have built rpm 4.1 for arm-linux, to run on arm-linux. But it doesn't work. :( What am I doing wrong?
Oh, you want more detail? ;)
So far, I have rpm 4.1 built to run on x86, but create packages for armv4l.
Using that, I built rpm 4.1 to run on armv4l and use packages for armv4l.
There's a structure alignment patch in rpmio/rpmpgp.c for arm that you want. Check
the rpm package at netwinder.org for the patch (you might have to diff rpmpgp.c yourself).
I'm not having any luck finding a delta for rpmpgp.c
Comparing this:
http://rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/netwinder/netwinder/SRPMS/base/nw9/rpm-4.2-0.69.src.html
With 4.2-1 from rpm.org didn't show a rpmpgp.c delta. Is this something that was merged into the main-line 4.2?
I found a discussion regarding ARM alignment issues here: http://www.netwinder.org/~brianbr/alignment.html
Is this what you are refering to?
If all the indices were created with lazy open, and Packages has changed size, then the package was
probably installed correctly. Add -vv to the install args watch the entries being created.
The install sure looks like it is installing correctly... all the files show up, the database in /var/lib/rpm gets updated (lots of files, presumably indexes), -vv looks ok to me[1] and shows /var/lib/rpm ...
When installing SysVinit, I got:
warning: group tty does not exist - using root
error: rpmdbAdd: skipping h# 1 Header SHA1 digest: BAD Expected(855b2024ed7c9e0f84a95ef7eecc8dd94299aa4d) != (b3df4119a6ba856a3e69299f82cc980cd6796610)
I haven't pursued this yet, but it may be a clue. I'll try again to find the alignment patch...
Thanks again,
Eli PS. I'll be out until Tuesday, so I'll pick this up then. --------------------. "If it ain't broke now, Eli Carter \ it will be soon." -- crypto-gram eli.carter(a)inet.com `-------------------------------------------------
