Hi Folks, I've been trying on and off for the past few weeks to try and get _some_ version of RPM 4.x to compile under Solaris 8 and it seems I hit a different snag with each one. I've been over the list archives and looked thru Bugzilla, and although some of the patches/workarounds there go me thru a particular compile problem, it always seemed like something else would then crop up. Very frustrating... My latest compile attempt was using RPM 4.2.1 (from the rpm-4.2.1-4.2.src.rpm for RH Enterprise 3). I got some compile errors about missing headers, which looked to me like they were from the openssl package, so I compiled openssl locally and pointed to its include and lib dirs with CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS respectively. But even after re-running configure and make, I still see the same errors, and it also looks like it's looking for beecrypt.h, which isn't part of openssl as far as I can tell. (What is beecrypt a part of?) Specifics of the compile and error msgs are below. So a couple of questions for the list: 1) Am I doing something wrong/stupid here or am I missing some other required package? I'm not sure how up to date the INSTALL file is in the distribution, it looks strangely similar to the one that was in rpm 4.1 2) Has anyone managed to successfully compile _any_ version 4.x of RPM for Solaris at all? I really really really want to use it for tracking package installations for this project I'm working on, since the Solaris packaging mechanism is so archaic and feature-less! :) Unfortunately I've got specific requirements for this project about where I can install RPM itself and keep the RPM DB directory, so I don't think I can use any of the pre-built RPM binaries that I've seen for Solaris out there. Thanks in advance to any advice you can provide! cheers, -steve % env CC=gcc CPPFLAGS='-I/localdisk/scratch/smuskiew/openssl/include' LDFLAGS='-L/localdisk/scratch/smuskiew/openssl/lib' ./configure --prefix=/opt/cad/tools/rpm --without-python --disable-nls --without-java-glue [snip] % make [snip] rm -f .libs/digest.lo gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I. -I.. -I../popt -I../zlib -I/localdisk/scratch/smuskiew/openssl/include -g -O2 -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_REENTRANT -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wno-char-subscripts -c digest.c -Wp,-MD,.deps/digest.TPlo -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/digest.lo In file included from digest.c:6: rpmio_internal.h:12: beecrypt.api.h: No such file or directory In file included from digest.c:6: rpmio_internal.h:16: beecrypt.h: No such file or directory rpmio_internal.h:17: base64.h: No such file or directory rpmio_internal.h:18: dsa.h: No such file or directory rpmio_internal.h:19: endianness.h: No such file or directory In file included from digest.c:6: rpmio_internal.h:22: rsa.h: No such file or directory rpmio_internal.h:23: rsapk.h: No such file or directory rpmio_internal.h:24: sha1.h: No such file or directory make[2]: *** [digest.lo] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/localdisk/scratch/smuskiew/rpm-4.2.1/rpmio' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/localdisk/scratch/smuskiew/rpm-4.2.1' make: *** [all] Error 2 _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
