|
1 Requirements.
|
|
|
|
First make sure you have at least IXEmul v45.0 installed.
|
|
These packages are needed to be able to compile rpm:
|
|
* gettext
|
|
* gdbm
|
|
* zlib
|
|
|
|
These extra packages are needed to run rpm:
|
|
* cpio
|
|
|
|
2 Installation.
|
|
|
|
These are the things you'll have to do to install this package.
|
|
|
|
* cd <your-build-directory>
|
|
* tar -xzvf rpm-2.2.9-src.tar.gz
|
|
* cd rpm-2.2.9
|
|
* configure --prefix=/ade
|
|
* make
|
|
* make install
|
|
|
|
Now it's time to edit the file "ade:lib/rpmrc" to correspond to your
|
|
system setup. Change the following entry:
|
|
* topdir: /place/to/store/RPM/packages
|
|
Make sure <tmppath> points to a _harddisk_ directory (the ram disk doesn't
|
|
allow the use of softlinks):
|
|
* tmppath: /place/on/your/hard/disk
|
|
Add the following entry:
|
|
* builddir: /place/where/RPM/will/build/packages
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to let <topdir> and <builddir> point to two different
|
|
partitions.
|
|
|
|
Now create the following directories in <topdir>:
|
|
* RPMS
|
|
* RPMS/m68k
|
|
* SOURCES
|
|
* SRPMS
|
|
* SPECS
|
|
|
|
Create the "rpm" directory in "ade:lib".
|
|
makedir ade:lib/rpm
|
|
|
|
Now it's time to initialise the rpm database with:
|
|
rpm --initdb
|
