This message is usually caused by a damaged rpm. What does rpm2cpio emacs-X11 | cpio -itv have to say? If "premature end of file", then the package is somehow damaged. pm2cpio emacs-X11-20.4-5.i386.rpm | cpio -itv -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 196 Dec 8 05:02 etc/X11/applnk/Applications/emacs.desktop -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 95 Dec 8 05:02 etc/X11/wmconfig/emacs -rwxr-xr-t 2 root root 0 Dec 8 05:02 usr/bin/emacs -rwxr-xr-t 2 root root 2903024 Dec 8 05:02 usr/bin/emacs-20.4 cpio: premature end of file *** Bug 7782 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I get the same results as slavko from the rpm2cpio pkg.rpm |cpio -itv test. Since emacs-X11-20.4.5.i386.rpm was made available, two new, unrelated rpms have appeared on rawhide with the same problem: isapnptools-1.21-1.i386.rpm lesstif-2.0-devel-0.89.4-1.i386.rpm So it would appear this is not an emacs problem, but more likely an rpm packaging problem. This bug is a duplicate of 7830 and should be closed (I can't do that myself). |
