I've had this situation: a Linux From Scratch built system which needs to have the ability to install packages using rpm, the only answer I came up with was to create a dummy package that Provides /bin/sh. My script which creates this system does (in a chroot): rpm --initdb rpm --install --nodeps dummy.rpm And I have no further problems.... _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
