Hi
has anybody had any luck installing perl module rpm-s
from Charles Wilson's site (http://cygutils.netpedia.net/)?
I'm using Windows 98, 2nd edition.
I try to install a module using the rpm command:
rpm --install perl-DBI-1.13-1-cygwinb20.i386.rpm
and get the response
error: perl-DBI-1.13-1-cygwinb20.i386.rpm cannot be installed
I installed rpm using the instructions and binary provided
at http://cygutils.netpedia.net/
rpm -i -vv perl-DBI-1.13-1-cygwinb20.i386.rpm
returns:
D: counting packages to install
D: found 1 packages
D: looking for packages to download
D: retrieved 0 packages
D: New Header signature
D: Signature size: 68
D: Signature pad : 4
D: sigsize : 72
D: Header + Archive: 380280
D: expected size : 380280
error: /tmp/perl-DBI-1.13-1-cygwinb20.i386.rpm cannot be installed
D: found 0 source and 0 binary packages
[exited with 1]
I'm using stock B20.1 with the jan 15, 1999 cygwin1.dll
Any help appreciated
