Mandriva 2011.0
[rolf@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/mandriva-release
Mandriva Linux release 2011.0 (Official) for x86_64
[rolf@localhost ~]$ rpm -q rpm
rpm-5.3.12-0.20110712.2-mdv2011.0.x86_64
This is my first exposure to rpm-5 and I couldn't understand why I
couldn't rpm -qip [--changelog] URL or rpm -U --oldpackage URL, some rpm
functionalities I've come to use often, after 11 years of Mandrake|iva.
This thread is the first suggestion of the reason I've found, after some
fruitless google searching and devising some testing to eliminate local
corruption: https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=64914
Is "network access was disabled in rpm-5.0.0" why I am seeing this? If
so, can the functionalities be restored?
Thanks,
Rolf

Hi again,
here with some more information about the topic.
Using rpm 4.1 fetching packages directly via ftp works nicely. The
command below works fine.
Exactly the same commands fails for rpm 5.0.0:
$ rpm --ignoreos --dbpath /cygdrive/d/home/rpmroot/rpmdb -- relocate
/if=/cygdrive/d/home/rpmroot/if --relocate /sys=/cy
gdrive/d/home/rpmroot/sys -i ftp://user:[email protected]:2666/
CoC_sys/Most/Trunk/rpms/most_if-1.0-1.i686.rpm ftp:
//user:[email protected]:2666/CoC_sys/Most/Trunk/rpms/most-
bin-1.0-1.i686.rpm error: open of
ftp://user:[email protected]:2666/CoC_sys/Most/
Trunk/rpms/most_if-1.0-1.i686.rpm failed: No such fil e or directory
Is this a bug or feature?
rpm5.org decided to do network access through external curl
rather than internal rpmio (as in rpm-4.1).
So network access was disabled in rpm-5.0.0.
I've added a patch in cvs already to permit opt-in re-enabling,
patch attached below.
Then "opt-in" to network access by doing
echo "%_rpmgio %{nil}" >> /etc/rpm/macros
The patch will be in rpm-5.0.1 Real Soon Now.
Note there may be a few more cases where Fopen needs the
same "opt-in" change, but the 3 cases in lib/rpmgi.c are the
most important because that is the most common case for
queries.
