Hello. This is my first post. Hoping someone here can lend me a hand. I am trying to compile/install yum on AIX. After installing many of the gnu utilities(gcc, db, zlib, coreutils, etc) I think i'm pretty close.
I have python 2.5.2, rpm-3.0.5, and gettext-0.10 installed on ppc AIX6.1 host. during the make, I do get a WARNING message that my version of gettext does not support extracting non-ASCII strings, but I don't think this is the culprit. I have tried compiling both yum versions 3.2.13 and 3.2.29, but both error with the same message "No module name rpm" when trying to run the yum binary. Google hasn't yielded much info. Below is a rpm -qa showing all of the gnu packages installed on my host. [root@nimclient opt]# yum There was a problem importing one of the Python modules required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was: No module named rpm Please install a package which provides this module, or verify that the module is installed correctly. It's possible that the above module doesn't match the current version of Python, which is: 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Mar 12 2009, 09:05:38) [C] If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to the yum faq at: http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq [root@nimclient opt]# [root@nimclient opt]# uname; rpm -qa AIX cdrecord-1.9-7 mkisofs-1.13-4 AIX-rpm-6.1.5.0-1 tcl-8.4.7-3 tk-8.4.7-3 expect-5.42.1-3 bash-3.2-1 bash-doc-3.2-1 gcc-4.2.0-3 gcc-c++-4.2.0-3 libgcc-4.2.0-3 libstdc++-4.2.0-3 libstdc++-devel-4.2.0-3 make-3.80-1 readline-4.3-2 readline-devel-4.3-2 zlib-1.2.3-4 zlib-devel-1.2.3-4 popt-1.7-2 rpm-3.0.5-51 rpm-build-3.0.5-51 rpm-devel-3.0.5-51 db-4.4.20-2 openssl-0.9.7l-2 python-docs-2.5.2-1 gdbm-1.8.3-5 openssl-devel-0.9.7l-2 python-tools-2.5.2-1 intltool-0.27.2-1 gettext-0.10.40-8 coreutils-5.2.1-2 openssl-doc-0.9.7l-2 python-2.5.2-1 python-devel-2.5.2-1 [root@nimclient opt]#
