Re: Query Regarding RPM

[devzero2000 <pinto.elia@xxxxxxxxx>]

A possibility, not the only, is as follow:

%include pkg.spec  <------- #
Summary: A very simple package.
Name: simplest
Version: 1.0
Release: 1
License: GPL

#cat pkg.spec
Packager: <sharfilename>

So the perl script can write in pkg.spec the sharfile name

I don't have shar file name defined in Spec file as shar file has been
created using perl script
Could you please let me know how can I access this variable from perl to
Spec file

In the perl I tried to write the shar file name to some file, but I dont
know if there is any ways to get the file content in the Spec file

Thanks a lot for the info!

If you want attribute the package ownership, so  you can  find  later,  to
the  shar  utility that have installed the package you
can, but it is only an idea, to define in your spec file

Packager (or Vendor): <your shar file>

So you can later query for example

rpm -qa --qf 'Package %{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch} was installed
by %{packager} \n"

Sure, look as an hack, and it is. In fact, some better rpm tags would  be
more "right" to use : Vendor or Packager have other use.

 Thanks a lot for the response, but it did not give me the shar file name
 To make my query more clear, we have created shell archive of the rpm
 files
 I want to know  which shell archive file is used,  after installation

 Thanks!

 Hi chinna,

  Im not very sure about your query but I will suggest you a command that
 will qive the entire list of the binaries and the shared libraries
 that is being installed
 by a package.

  The command is rpm -qlp xyz.rpm

 Regards,
