This way OpenPKG-CURRENT starting with openpkg-20030826-20030826 is now RPM 4.2.1 based. Thanks to all contributors for their help.

I don't see any major obstacle to get it running on all our supported platforms. - Needs to be upgraded to the newer shell functions for rc scripts Sure, but that's just drag and drop or copy and paste :) - popt options doesn't work in rpm Can you elaborate on that ? - rpm wants to use its own version of libdb, this was worked around by renaming the rpm-specific libdb source dir (db3-db3.tmp). This way it picks up db-4.1.x from the main openpkg distribution, but it may not be the most elegant way of doing it. Probably not, but it is important for compatibility. BTW, we use the older db-3.2.9. - hardcoded a few defines to make rpm/4.2.1/rpmio compile since the configure script that ships with rpm-4.2.1 didn't seem to get it right. Yes. There needs more to be done in this area for portability. I hope to get a working package out this week. Greetings, -- ,eM=.a-. Michael van Elst dWWMWM - :GM==;[EMAIL PROTECTED] :WWMWMw=--.

It is known not to compile on Redhat 6. Since you will have to look this gift horse in the mouth anyway, here is a rundown of the crooked teeth I know about: - Needs to be upgraded to the newer shell functions for rc scripts - popt options doesn't work in rpm - rpm wants to use its own version of libdb, this was worked around by renaming the rpm-specific libdb source dir (db3-db3.tmp). This way it picks up db-4.1.x from the main openpkg distribution, but it may not be the most elegant way of doing it. - hardcoded a few defines to make rpm/4.2.1/rpmio compile since the configure script that ships with rpm-4.2.1 didn't seem to get it right. On the positive side, I've worked with this version on about 6 different machines for a bout 2 weeks without any crashes, corrupt databases etc. Cheers Conrad On Mon, 2003-08-04 at 09:12, Michael van Elst via RT wrote: Request 68 was acted upon. _ URL: https://rt.openpkg.org/id/68 Ticket: [OpenPKG #68] Subject: upgrade bootstrap to RPM 4.2 Requestors: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Queue: openpkg Owner: mlelstv Status: open Transaction: Correspondence added by mlelstv Time: Mon Aug 04 18:12:33 2003 Conrad, I've placed updated versions (rpm and .sh) of the openpkg base using rpm-4.2.1 at http://hepgrid1.caltech.edu/clarens/source/ Just in time :-) I will have a close look.

Hi
I made a port of the bootstrap package to rpm-4.2.1, available at
http://heppc22.hep.caltech.edu/openpkg/
This addresses RT ticket #68 at
https://rt.openpkg.org/SelfService/Display.html?id=68
Since the downloads are rather large, the .boot and .spec files and
changed/added patch files are also available.
The README is below.
Hopefully this would be a useful start to the 4.2 port :-)
Cheers!
Conrad

OpenPKG port to rpm-4.2.1 based on openpkg-20030710
---
In this directory:
1. Prebuilt source RPM/shell scripts
openpkg-20030710_4.2.1-20030710_4.2.1.src.rpm
openpkg-20030710_4.2.1-20030710_4.2.1.src.sh
2. Boot script and spec file
openpkg.spec
openpkg.boot
3. Patches modified to work with rpm-4.2.1
rpm.patch.bugfix
rpm.patch.feature
rpm.patch.fts
rpm.patch.makefile
rpm.patch.porting
You also need:
rpm-4.2.1.tar.gz from http://www.rpm.org
beecrypt-3.0.0.tar.gz from http://sourceforge.net/projects/beecrypt/
Make diffs as appropriate
Caveats
---
1. rpm.patch.regen is not applied, since it is specific to rpm-4.0.2
2. rpm --install --justdb in the build process fails for some reason, so
the
rpm package is _really_ installed to prepare the rpm database.
3. This part of rpm.patch.porting was not applied out of sheer laziness:
+---
| Avoid non-portable construct: a self-referencing structure
| declaration cannot be combined with the corresponding typedef.
| Although GCC supports this (and does the correct thing), most
| other stricter compilers complain and fail.

4. This version of rpm uses the 'rpmbuild' command to build packages. it
is
included in the path of the installation. It actually calls the 'rpmb'
command, but Redhat-9 also does it this way, so there.
5. I'm new to OpenPKG so touching any of this may format your root

really serious mischief to happen. You've been warned ;-)
