WilliamS Posted October 14, 2003 Report Share Posted October 14, 2003 Trying to install apcupsd-3.9.8-2mdk.src.rpm and i got as far as: [root@localhost SPECS]# rpm -ba apcupsd.spec /usr/lib/rpm/rpmb: No such file or directory which is true, there is no such file. I have this sinking feeling that on install of mdk9.1 I should have selected something for install, but don't know what applies here. What do I need to do? :?: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdg Posted October 14, 2003 Report Share Posted October 14, 2003 Open a console, su to root and put this: rpmbuild --rebuild apcupsd-3.9.8-2mdk.src.rpm Then go to /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i586 You should have a normal .rpm file to install there using either "urpmi" or "rpm -ivh" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamS Posted October 14, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2003 I tried urpmi rpmbuild yesterday, forgetting that this is my TEST mdk, and haven't yet done easy urpmi. Brainfog strikes again. Thanks guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
