help using openpkg [newbie question]

2004-07-21 Thread Simon J Mudd
Hi, I've been looking at OpenPkg now for several days and like what I see, but I seem to be missing somethings: I'm using Whitebox Linux (a RedHat Enterprise 3 clone) which isn't supported. What could I do to the bootstrap procedure to convince openpkg I'm using RHEL3 so I can just download th

Building python-2.4.2-2.5.0 on AIX 5.3 fails: lib/openpkg/shtool: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Arg list too long

2006-10-31 Thread Simon J Mudd
I'm trying to build python on AIX 5.3 using the OpenPKG 2.5 rpms. The python build fails with shtool complaining: /openpkg/2.5/RPM/TMP/rpm-tmp.17996: /openpkg/2.5/lib/openpkg/shtool: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Arg list too long /bin/sh in AIX is linked to /usr/bin/ksh, the native AIX korn shell.
