you ever wanted to know the gory details, here they are...
The first step was that we wrote the regular openpkg.spec file for
- building the bootstrap package with RPM under the assumption that RPM
- is already available. This way we can provide RPM as an RPM package.
- Just remains the problem how we actually bootstrap in the case where
- RPM is still not available, i.e., when we reach a new platform and
- have to build the package from scratch. Here the openpkg.boot script
- comes into play. It executes the openpkg.spec build procedure very
- similar to the way RPM would do ("rpm -bb"). That is, openpkg.boot
- partly emulates RPM -- just enough that openpkg.spec works. As a
- result, openpkg.spec cannot use any fancy RPM features or other things
- before openpkg.boot is able to emulate it, of course.
-
- After openpkg.boot executed the %prep, %build and %install scripts
- of openpkg.spec, there is a fresh version of the target filesystem
- hierarchy staying under a temporary build root. The openpkg.boot
- script then creates a very special temporary "rpm" command which
- allows the installed "rpm" command inside the build root to work
- (although it is built for the final target filesystem path). Then
- the $RPM_BOOT variable is set and the package is again "built" via
- openpkg.spec -- but this time with the real RPM tool. To avoid
- unneccessary re-compilation, the openpkg.spec skips %prep, %build
- and %install if $RPM_BOOT is defined, so on this second build phase,
- only %files is executed, i.e., a binary RPM openpkg-V-R.P-L.rpm is
- rolled from the files in the build root. Additionally, a source RPM
- openpkg-V-R.src.rpm is rolled for consistency reasons.
-
- Finally we override the installation in the build root again by
- installing the now rolled binary RPM openpkg-V-R.P-L.rpm again by
- using the real RPM tool. This way we achieve that RPM is remembered
- as an RPM package in its own database. We just have to make sure the
- package is still relocated to the build root while installing. For
- this we could use --prefix=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{l_prefix}, but this would

- means "rpm" behaves as it would install into the real location, but
- does not actually install anything. But as a side-effect, the database
- inside the build root is now correct.
-
- After this procedure, the build root contains the target filesystem
- hierarchy with RPM installed with itself. What is now remaining is
- to roll a bootstrap package with this stuff for initial installation
- without RPM. For this the build root is packed into a tarball,
- compressed, again wrapped into another tarball together with the

- unpacking of the attached tarball) to its front.

- ix86-solaris9
- ix86-solaris10
- ix86-unixware7.1.3
- ix86-darwin6.6.2

- The following platforms were supported by older versions of
- this package, but their support status is currently not known:
-
- ix86-netbsd1.6
- hppa-hpux11.20
-
- For following platforms until now are not supported, but support for
- them is planned:
-
- ix86-openbsd2.4
- alpha-tru645.X
- mips-irix5.X.X
- ppc-aix4.X.X
+ on other machines, one can run "./openpkg.boot -s" which rolls
+ a "openpkg-V-R.src.sh" script which is a self-extracting script
+ containing an attached tarball of the sources of this directory. This
+ script contains the same contents like "openpkg-V-R.src.rpm", but
+ is intended for running the described bootstrapping procedure from
