From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2-2 i686) Description of problem: rpm --relocate doesn't seem to work. See the output of a try: [root@trane /root]# rpm -i --relocate /opt/poet61=/tmp/poet61 http://192.168.1.1/rpms/POET61-JavaCollectionClasses-6.1.8.76-1.i386.rpm Installing Java Collection Classes error: can't unlink /tmppoet61-RPMDELETE: Is a directory Note the missing slash in "tmppoet61". It doesn't install any files, but puts the package into to the list of installed ones. Pretty weird. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try rpm --relocate with a relocatable package 2. 3. Additional info:
Fixed in rpm-4.0.3-0.6, available at ftp://ftp.rpm.org/pub/rpm/test-4.0.3 Please note that everything newer than 4.0.3-0.6 is still under development, and is a very different beast indeed.
*** Bug 40084 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The ftp site mentioned, ftp://ftp.rpm.org/pub/rpm/test-4.0.3, no longer contains rpm 4.0.3-0.6. It now contains rpm 4.0.3-1.03, which appears to be that very different beast you warned about. Where can we find rpm 4.0.3-0.6?
Can anyone tell me where the fix rpm is ? I am trying to load Informix software and get the same issue /products/informix errors as /productsinform.
