Just tried to run gendistrib to build the 8.0 hdlists etc. 8.0 tree is
stored on a machine running 7.2. On running gendistrib, I get:
Can't load './auto/rpmtools/rpmtools.so' for module
rpmtools: librpmio.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/i386-linux/DynaLoader.pm line 200.
at ./gendistrib line 20
According to rpmfind.net, librpmio.so.0 is provided by rpm4, which
explains why the 7.2 system (with rpm 3.0.5) doesn't have it. This is a
chicken-and-egg situation: I need rpm4 (part of 8.0) to build the 8.0
distribution media. Is there any way that librpmio could be provided
along with rpmtools in /misc?
TIA,
Michael Brown
