Hi, it's time for me to fix this problem but I think I don't have the necessary knowledge of the data structures implied. BTW i've added a printf to produce debug information like that (I can also print other information if needed): ... rpmuint32_t * stei = memcpy(alloca(nb), dataStart + off, nb); rdl = (rpmuint32_t)-ntohl(stei[2]); /* negative offset */ printf("rdl=%d\n",rdl); assert((rpmint32_t)rdl >= 0); /* XXX insurance */ ril = (rpmuint32_t)(rdl/sizeof(*pe)); ... This is the output: 199:lrzsz ########################################### [ 82%] rdl=80 rdl=992 200:openmamba-devel ########################################### [ 82%] rdl=80 rdl=992 201:mobile-broadband-provid########################################### [ 82%] rdl=80 rdl=928 202:lxde-icon-theme ########################################### [ 83%] rdl=112 rdl=800 rdl=-1869575168 rpm: header.c:1045: headerLoad: Assertion `(rpmint32_t)rdl >= 0' failed. ./functions.inc.sh: line 320: 15601 Abortito LANG=${LANGUAGE}_${COUNTRY}.UTF-8 $RPM --ignorearch -r $MOUNTDIR -hiv -- replacepkgs $rpmextraargs $2 $TOINSTALL_RPMS makedist.sh: fatal error, aborting installation makedist.sh: exit code was: 134 As you can notice the singular thing is that rdl is printed three times instead of two only when the failure occours. I can sent the whole installation log if needed. As said, installing the package alone does not produce the error and this is the output: $ sudo rpm -r /var/makedist/root.tmp -i /var/ftp/pub/openmamba/devel/RPMS.arm/lxde-icon-theme-0.0.1-3mamba.arm.rpm rdl=80 rdl=928 error: LOOP: error: removing lxde-icon-theme-0.0.1-3mamba.arm "Requires: /usr/share/doc/lxde-icon-theme-0.0.1" from tsort relations. rdl=80 rdl=928 Thanks for any kind of help...
