"only packages with major numbers <=3 are supported by this version of RPM"
Several other packages give this error also.
Current versions:
Mandrake 7.0
kpackage-1.3.10-1mdk
rpm-3.0.5-27mdk
rpm-devel-3.0.5-27mdk
I'm trying to install:
rpm-4.0-8mdk.rpm
which has dependences:
glibc >= 2.1.92
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2)
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
Questions:
1. What version of rpm will fix the above problem?
2. Where can I find "rpmlib"? I've searched rpmfind.com and the Mandrake web site and got no hits.
Curiosity questions only:
3. What part of "glibc-2.2.1-3mdk.rpm" fails "<=3" anyway?
4. What kind of ridiculous limit is 3 for a version number anyway?
A large number like 1000 might be barely justifiable, but "3"? Give
me a break!
