Hallo Michael,

ich habe herausgefunden, wieso openpkg-20021030-20021030.src.sh
auf meinen HP-UX Maschinen nicht ganz durchlauft:
es liegt wahrscheinlich an rpmtool:

./rpmtool  platform
liefert "9000/800-hp-uxB.11.11" zuruck.

"/" ist als Dateiname eher ungeeignet :-)

Verbesserungsvorschlag: 
1.) bei platform_machine "/" durch "_" ersetzen

2.) bei platform_system "-" durch "_" oder "" ersetzen,
liefert sonst hp-ux zuruck --> ein "-" zuviel, oder ?


Gru?,
Dieter Mosbach
