I am trying to convert a non-rpm based machine to an rpm based one. I installed rpm-4.8.0 from source and then built rpm-4.8.0-1.i386.rpm and then tried to install it. I got: /bin/bash is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 /bin/sh is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 /usr/bin/perl is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 /usr/bin/pkg-config is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(Config) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(File::Basename) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(File::Find) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(File::Temp) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(Getopt::Long) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(Module::ScanDeps::DataFeed) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(POSIX) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(Thread::Queue) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(constant) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(strict) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(threads) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 perl(vars) is needed by rpm-4.8.0-1.i386 I thought I would start at the top and install bash. I built bash-4.1-1.i386.rpm from source and when I tried to install it, I got: error: Failed dependencies: /bin/sh is needed by bash-4.1-1.i386 Now I'm really stuck, since bash provides /bin/sh as a symlink to /bin/bash. Googling doesn't really help, as most of the suggested solutions apply to installed distros. Is what I'm trying to do possible or do I have to build the rpms from source using an rpm based machine? Can anyone throw me a rope to extract me from this bottomless pit? jb. Get a new e-mail account with Hotmail - Free. Sign-up now. |
