I've spent some time recently making both yum and urpmi buildable and this work should be in current as of the last couple of weeks. The problem with both of these is that they rely on genhdlist from the anaconda installer which in turn depends on the python rpm module from the rpm package (which OpenPKG doesn't build). The most self contained solution is APT-Rpm (apt in OpenPKG) - I fixed it as far as getting it to build under RedHat, but apparently it didn't do that well on other platforms. This works, at least with very simple test cases, although I'm not sure how it behaves with package options (these are actually listed as individual packages in the apt cache).o using openpkg build with -B option works as well, even if it's painfully slow. /skaar -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |\|\ where in the | s_u_b_s_t_r_u_c_t_i_o_n | | >=========== W.A.S.T.E. | genarratologies |/|/ (_) is the wisdom | [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ______________________________________________________________________ The OpenPKG Project www.openpkg.org User Communication List openpkg-users@openpkg.org
