So I booted the Fedora 7 Live CD, and tried to find out what software packages were installed. There is no directory like /usr/src/fedora or /usr/src/redhat where I would have expected to find .rpm packages. In fact, there aren't any .rpm packages at all.
# find / -type f -name \*.rpm -print > /tmp/find_rpm # finds nothing Ask rpm what's installed: [EMAIL PROTECTED] share]# rpm -qa > /tmp/find_rpm rpmdb: Program version 4.3 doesn't match environment version error: db4 error(-30974) from dbenv->open: DB_VERSION_MISMATCH: Database environment version mismatch error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - (-30974) error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm Not quite ready for prime time. I tried browsing around the Fedora web site for more guidance. < http://fedoraproject.org/ > Mostly what I could find was advice on how to write things for their Wiki, and advice on how to submit things to Bugzilla. No advice regarding already-reported bugs. And we try to foist this off on unsuspecting InstallFest customers. carl -- carl lowenstein marine physical lab u.c. san diego [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
