The rpm list does not matter (and is ignored by the '-m yum' method). > Unfortunately, I have some issues with a messages, that pops up during > installation. It's only a message... because yum does not do proper error-handling, the installation will succeed nevertheless. > I'm not quite sure, whether this warnings/errors shows up due to > missing dependency settings in the RPM - or it could be an issue with > installing via RPM... This happens because the rpm package has bad assumptions regarding the availability of the rpmdb in %scriptlets. Because of security reasons, this rpmdb is hidden and 'chown /var/lib/rpm/[A-Z]*' will not find a file where it can operate on. > The errors I get are: > > /bin/chown: cannot access `/var/lib/rpm/[A-Z]*': No such file or directory A workaround would be, to add a | touch "$vdir"/.rpmdb/FORTYTWO or (better, but untested) | ( cd "$vdir" && $_CHROOT_SH append /var/lib/rpm/FORTYTWO </dev/null ) to the 'initpre' script of your distribution.
