All, As a corollary to creating the rpm file, I'd like a trivial way to extract (install) a rpm file in a non-standard location, in an environment where I don't have root and don't want to 'pollute' the environment, to do various checks on that rpm file. So, how do you do this? I tried: rpm -i <bin.rpm> --root /tmp/myroot --nodeps but it still looks like it is trying to install the files in the same location as where they were packaged (ie: prefixed with slash, etc, curl goes into /usr/bin/curl as usual) Shouldn't this command put all the files rooted in /tmp/myroot, eg. /tmp/myroot/usr/bin/curl? If not, how do you make it do so? Thanks much, Ed _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
