by Im trying to use the port of RPM for UWin. Unfortunatelly Im having
some problems to get it to work
properly.
I installed the new version of Uwin (3.1) sucessfully. I also
downloaded RPM 4.0.3 from Wipro site and
installed it. I did the instalation from the root directory (/) using:
$ tar xvf rpm-4.0.3.tar
rpm-4.0.3.tar volume 1 in tar format
usr
usr/bin
usr/bin/rpm.exe
usr/bin/rpm2cpio.exe
usr/local
usr/local/lib
usr/local/lib/rpm
usr/local/lib/rpm/rpmrc
usr/man
usr/man/man8
usr/man/man8/rpm.8
usr/man/man8/rpm2cpio.8
12 files, 1365 blocks
After that I created the directory /var/lib/rpm .
To create the rpm database I execute rpm --initdb . At this point
I get an error:
$ rpm --initdb
cannot open file //var/lib/rpm/nameindex.rpm: No such file or
directory
At /var/lib/rpm was created the following file:
$ pwd
/var/lib/rpm
$ ls
packages.rpm
The same message I get when I execute it using Administrator or su
.
Thanks for any help,
Gustavo
