[Cooker] rpm-3.05 Upgrading

[Alberto Vorano]

Hallo to all! Maybe in the past someone just replied to my question, but in the present list I found no match, so I ask, hopefully not again. Which way can I upgrade rpm-3.05x in Mandrake 7.2 to 4.x? As I found no way to upgrade it to 4.0x by rpm (I had back some errors due to missing libraries and older DB2 database), I decided to try the tarball method. Following the indications, I downloaded and installed all packages required, as follows: (rpm-4.0) db-3.1.17 texinfo-4.0 libtool-1.3.5 zlib-1.1.3 gnupg-1.0.4 Other necessary packages were installed by default in Mdk 7.2 When I launched Make I had back the errors below  ( .lib directory is in /root/rpm-4.0/lib/): gcc -g -O2 -D_GNU_SOURCE -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wno-char-subscripts -o .libs/dump dump.o ../build/.libs/librpmbuild.so ../lib/.libs/librpm.so -ldb1 ../rpmio/.libs/librpmio.so -L/usr/local/lib -lz -lbz2 ../popt/.libs/libpopt.so ../lib/.libs/librpm.so: undefined reference to `db3Free' ../lib/.libs/librpm.so: undefined reference to `db3New' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [dump] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/rpm-4.0/tools' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/rpm-4.0' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 [root@localhost rpm-4.0]# Is it a bug or did I make something wrong? Please, can someone help me? Thank you in advance Alberto Vorano
