The problem is that you didn't installed locale 2.3.1.1. If you get system which has 
locale 2.3.1.1 installed, just copy
/usr/share/locale directory on to your system and once you do this, rpm will stop 
segfault on you and you can upgrade your locale to
2.3.1.1 after all. The Mandrake is known for loose package dependencies checking.

Hey Morten,


You could try and download the precompiled binaries that can be found on
the rpm.org ftp site.  They do come in tarballs and make things a little
simplier.

Hey Morten,

Son, this list is about the actual DEVELOPMENT of cooker, and those 
matters which are beyond the scope of the newbie and expert lists. 
 Despite the involvement with cooker rpm, it is still just a newbie 
question.
Make sure you rebuild-ed your database and one word if that dont work:
T-A-R-B-A-L-L

Glad to be of assistance :)






[Cooker] Cooker RPM help needed!

2001-06-17 Thread Morten Poulsen

Hello All!

I seeem to have made a mess of my  Mandrake 8.0 dist. with some 
rpm-4.0.3-packages from COoker. I segfault'et when you tried to do anything 
elsa but watch the --help. Trying to fix this I installed rpm-4.0.2 from the 
sources from www.rpm.org, but it complains:
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm

What can I do but reinstall 8.0? Of course I need to downgrade to the 
4.0-package in the 8.0-installation, but this is a bit hard without a working 
rpm ,-)
