Anyone have a problem with URPMI in 9.1RC1?

I can't get it to work. Simply says:

"Command not found"

Root urpmi

bash: urpmi: command not found

 

But it is found by find:

Root find . -name urpmi

find: ./mnt/floppy: Input/output error

./etc/logrotate.d/urpmi

./etc/urpmi

./var/lib/urpmi

./var/cache/urpmi

./usr/sbin/urpmi

./linux1/var/lib/urpmi

 

And finally, permissions appear okay:

Root ll urpmi

-rwxr--r--    1 root     root        24915 Feb 17 09:43 urpmi

 

Any other ideas?

Should have mentioned that too...

 

Rootecho $PATH

/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/home/dad/bin:/home/dad/bin:/usr/sbin

 

There is is right at the end.

 

I'm stumped. urpmq works, but none of the other urpmi commands like .addmedia, or anything.

Instead of removing the whole package, I just removed the

urpmi parallel packages, and urpmi works again. *shrug* don't even know what those packages are for.

 

Hopefully I don't need them :)

Why is urpmi not finding these dependancies?

 

 

Root:~dad# urpmi bochs-2.0.2.i386.rpm

installing bochs-2.0.2.i386.rpm

 

Installation failed:

       libpng.so.2 is needed by bochs-2.0.2-1

       libvgagl.so.1 is needed by bochs-2.0.2-1

       libvga.so.1 is needed by bochs-2.0.2-1

       libwx_gtk-2.3.so.2 is needed by bochs-2.0.2-1

libpng.so.3 comes with 9.1. Having said that I think the rest of your files may be old and not one the distro anymore
