Happens due to a bug in rpm[1]. That's why, an 'initpre' script must be
executed which worksarounds this issue. The common redhat-style 'initpre'
script should be fine for RH clones, so you should add a symlink like

| /etc/vservers/.distributions/initpre ->  
/usr/lib/util-vserver/distributions/redhat/initpre


I will add more diagnostics to warn the user about this...


Nevertheless, as yum does not do proper errorhandling this bug will be
ignored and vserver should be built.

[Vserver] vserver build - one remaining issue...

2005-07-20 Thread Brian Ipsen 
Hi,

 One remaining issue (besides the bugs I might have run into)...

# ./vserver-build --force -m yum -n dns-int1 -- -d wbel4
Transaction Listing:
  Install: glibc.i686 0:2.3.4-2 - base

Performing the following to resolve dependencies:

error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/bin/X11;42dd8791: cpio:
symlink failed - No such file or directory

Installed: glibc.i686 0:2.3.4-2

After this, it seems like the shell is "hanging" - I don't know what the
system does, except, taht with "netstat" I can see an active ftp connection
to the yum repository...

Any idea what causes the cpio error - and how to fix it ?

Regards,
/Brian
