dmik: the problem with %pre. A really weird one. If a package has a %pre block, install goes smoothly, but the package doesn't get into the RPM database. I.e. it installs all its files, runs all its scripts but after the installation is finished, RPM still thinks that the package is not installed.

I am inquiring as to whether there is any problem w/ the subject or if I have done something wrong.

I installed the Bootstrap. However, a <yumbt> subdirectory to the <tmp> directory was created, and the various files installed there.

Consequently, when I issue a YUM command from the Boot Drive (where those files are installed) command line, it returns [G:\]yum SYS1041: The name yum is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

It seems the last time I installed RPM to another computer I didn't have this problem. So, I'm not sure how to correct it.

I have an ancient Pentium2 running OS/2 Warp CP2 4.52. It's running quite nicely and I'd like to get a few of the rpm packages (mostly cups) on it. I got cups working the manual (non-rpm) way but it was pretty kludgy, so I did a clean install and would like to do it the right way, if possible. Is this machine still a supported configuration? If not, then it should be clearly stated it's not. If so, then there's a technical or documentation problem.

Clean Warp 4.52 install. Added unzip and warpin 1.0.22. Tried:

warpin rpm-yum-bootstrap-1_5-i386.wpi

but WarpIN warned me that libc was required. I found and downloaded:

​http://rpm.netlabs.org/release/00/zip/libc-0_6_6-37_oc00.zip

unpacked it to a temporary directory, and moved usr to \. I added the following to c:\config.sys and rebooted.

SET UNIXROOT=C: Appended C:\usr\lib to LIBPATH Appended C:\usr\bin to PATH SET TMP=C:\tmp SET TMPDIR=C:\tmp

Then I redid:

warpin rpm-yum-bootstrap-1_5-i386.wpi

and it succeeded in installing the bootstrap environment. I launched the yum bootstrap console, and it successfully downloaded the repolist packages and told me to run:

yum install yum

I did that and it spat out a tonne of errors like:

Error: Package: urpo-20150513-11.oc00.i386 (netlabs-rel)

Requires: libc >= 0.6.6

Error: Package: rpm-4.8.1-25.oc00.i386 (netlabs-rel)

Requires: libc066.dll

Error: Package: 2:mmap-0.5-1.oc00.i386 (netlabs-rel)

Requires: libc065.dll

I've cut out a tonne of similar errors, all involving libc. It seems every package that requires libc (pretty much all of them) failed.

I checked the repos manually, and there doesn't seem to be a libc rpm package for i386. Is what I did (use the zip version of libc) correct? (By the way, there are no other libcXXX.dll libraries on the system aside from the one installed by the yum bootstrap package and the one I installed manually in \usr from your zip.)

I also tried moving the LIBPATH for C:\usr\lib to the front of LIBPATH, rebooting, and trying again, but that made no difference.

I see that the bootstrap console uses:

BEGINLIBPATH=C:\tmp\yumbt\usr\lib;C:\usr\lib

I've checked both of those locations and the libcXXX.dll's are there in both locations. I'm not why yum/rpm isn't finding them...
