Re: [Cooker] Mandrake update
Brian, You are not alone. I purposefully went through the different ways that I thought made sense to upgrade last night and had no luck. I tried: * rpmdrake: wouldn't let met add a distribution outside of it's known Cooker Disk 1 and Cooker Disk 2. It would gather info from a directory (/cooker/Mandrake/RPMS) or from a Cooker mirror and make a dist.cz file, however, I couldn't select that distribution in the _check mark_ screen. * MandrakeUpdate: would bomb (crash) when setting a mirror. At this time, I'm rsync'ing Cooker on my fileserver and the rpm -Fvh *'ing the cooker/Mandrake/RPMS directory. I wish there was a more elegant and intuitive way to do this, but I can't seem to find it. -Rob - Original Message - From: "Brian J.

Re: [Cooker] Mandrake Update Robot 0.7 no longer Beta :-) Weird rpm-4 API
Hiya Pixel, Thanks for the patch for compile. I have fixed most of the error, except a few of them. It seems rpm-4.0 has a weird API that doesn't have any `rpmdbFindPackage' and `rpmdbGetRecord'. Since some of the code were taken from grpmi and Kpackage, then they might not be able to compile too against 4.0, am I right? Regarding the following error: engine.cpp:719: cannot convert `void *(*) (headerToken *, rpmCallbackType_e, long unsigned int, long unsigned int, const void *, void *)' to `void *(*) (const void *, rpmCallbackType_e, long unsigned int, long unsigned int, const void *, void *)' for argument `2' to `rpmRunTransactions (rpmTransactionSet_s *, void *(*) (const void *, rpmCallbackType_e, long unsigned int, long unsigned int, const void *, void *), void *, rpmProblemSet_s *, rpmProblemSet_s **, int, int)' If you see, the argument 2 is HeaderToken *h , which can be stated "Header h", it's so weird. They change it to const void *h . I have people wanting this for Mandrake 7.2, that's why. So, I compiled it under 7.2, besides I only have 1 harddrive, that's why I can't install Cooker right now. It seems that gcc-2.96 is more strict about not returning a value for functions that aren't "void". I fixed the " warning: no return statement in function returning non-void". So, it won't be a problem anymore. Also, do you know how to statically link curl-lib into MandrakeUpdateRobot? When I gave g++ the "-static" arguments, it complains about not finding references to the defined functions :-( Thanks, Prana Pixel wrote: Prana [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hi guys, Mandrake Update Robot (the daemon for large network) is near the final stage now.
