archives and dejanews, and I can't find anything on this. ]
Hi,
How "beta" are Marcel's RedHat 6.0 ports? I'm trying to install
his beta RH6 linux-base on a July 10 -current, and numerous rpms fail to
install properly (similar things happen on 3.1-RELEASE, which is why I'm
now trying -current). A partial log looks like:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ldconfig-1.9.5-15.i386.rpm
ELF binary type not known. Use "brandelf" to brand it.
execution of script failed
error: /usr/ports/distfiles/rpm/ldconfig-1.9.5-15.i386.rpm cannot be installed
brandelf -t Linux /compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig
/compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig
glibc-2.1.1-6.i386.rpm
termcap-9.12.6-15.i386.rpm
libtermcap-2.0.8-13.i386.rpm
bash-1.14.7-16.i386.rpm
execution of script failed
error: /usr/ports/distfiles/rpm/bash-1.14.7-16.i386.rpm cannot be installed
ncurses-4.2-18.i386.rpm
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ldconfig rpm appears to install, regardless of the error message,
and the bash rpm doesn't work. Linux bash dumps core with a "Bad system
call - core dumped". A stack trace from FreeBSD's gdb gives:
(gdb) where
#0 0x280d3e8a in ?? ()
#1 0x8052594 in getwd ()
#2 0x806ac3f in group_member ()
#3 0x804b803 in strcpy ()
#4 0x804a825 in strcpy ()
#5 0x280cdcb3 in ?? ()
(However, I have no idea if this is garbage or not, as I'm not using
Linux's gdb to get the stack trace.)
Other rpms that do not install include:
info-3.12f-4.i386.rpm
fileutils-4.0-1.i386.rpm
grep-2.3-2.i386.rpm
binutils-2.9.1.0.23-1.i386.rpm
gd-1.3-5.i386.rpm
libc-5.3.12-31.i386.rpm
readline-2.2.1-5.i386.rpm
rpm-3.0-6.0.i386.rpm
tcsh-6.08.00-5.i386.rpm
Of the ones above, I've verified that Linux info, tcsh, and rpm dump
core (rpm sometimes works, but dumps core if you run "rpm --rebuilddb").
