Description Pierre Sarrazin 2002-11-28 18:10:46 EST 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.6 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020827

Description of problem:
When attempting to install (with -U) certain files that are not
RPM files, the error message "read manifest failed: Success" is
displayed.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.0.4-7x

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. echo '#' >foo.txt
2. rpm -U foo.txt


Actual Results:  foo.txt: read manifest failed: Success


Expected Results:  The word "Success" should not be there.
Perhaps the rpm command could better detect that the file
is not a valid binary RPM.
Comment 1 Jeff Johnson 2002-11-29 09:46:03 EST 
Fixed (by removing the misleading "Success")
in rpm-4.1.
