In fact it looks like this is rather rpm problem, thus reassiging to 'rpm'. [kir@localhost ~]$ sudo rpm -Uhv /var/cache/yum/fedora/packages/thunderbird-2.0.0.14-1.fc9.x86_64.rpm [sudo] password for kir: Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:thunderbird ########################################### [100%] error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/lib64/thunderbird-2.0.0.14/dictionaries: cpio: rename failed - Is a directory [kir@localhost ~]$ rpm -q rpm thunderbird rpm-4.4.2.3-2.fc9.x86_64 thunderbird-2.0.0.14-1.fc8.x86_64 [kir@localhost ~]$ uname -a Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.25.6-55.fc9.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 10 16:05:21 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux It looks like thunderbird is trying to change a dir to a symlink in the package. Which will not work, at all, w/any rpm. Changing dir to symlink is not going to work no matter what, so what's left is the false success reporting which makes this a dupe of 477849. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 477849 *** |
