I have a system running Mandrake 7.0. Whenever I run rpm -Uvh foo.rpm (or
ivh)it runs through the
##############################
and brings me back to a prompt. Then I querry the rpm that I just
installed..and it says "package not installed"
The current RPM I am trying to work with is the gcc.rpm that came on Disk2
of my distro. Does anyone know what would cause mandrake to run through the
motions...but not really install the package. Is there a command that will
tell the rpm database to refresh itself and in turn Mandrake will recognize
that the compiler is installed. If not...I really don't want to go through
all of the ^&*( to download the tarball and compile the compiler
myself...ugghh..what a pain :(
A friend of mine throught it was something to do with my bash file within
root...
Please help...I cant get any SQL or HTDIG working without a gcc g++ compiler
installed :(
THanks
Kat
