Looking at the section where it goes wrong, it appears to have to do with rpm. I don't have rpm installed. There is a /usr/bin/rpm however, but it's just a symlink to /bin/true. flaptoppy attr-2.4.41 # whereis rpm rpm: /usr/bin/rpm flaptoppy attr-2.4.41 # readlink /usr/bin/rpm /bin/true Renamed /usr/bin/rpm, all is fine. Wonder where /usr/bin/rpm came from. My bad, probably created the rpm link for the Juniper SSL-VPN appliance we have. It works fine under linux, but it gives errors about rpm missing. Linking /usr/bin/rpm to /bin/true solves the issue. Nasty fix. Sorry to have bugged you with this. looks like the sgi packages rely on the rpm version format ... if you give it something else, it falls apart: RPM_VERSION = 6 Inc <http://gnu it law Meyering *** Bug 219679 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 233134 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
