A few problems with installing perl5...


When I tried installing perl I got this after a load of "group None does not exist - using root" vomit:

unpacking of archive failed: cpio: Bad magic
0 [main] RPM 1028 handle_exceptions: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
1402 [main] RPM 1028 stackdump: Dumping stack trace to RPM.EXE.stackdump
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I ran: rpm -i --ignoreos perl-5.6.0-cygwin1.1.rpm

Also ran rpm with the verbose switch and nothing seemed wrong, until rpm got done creating things & started the preinstall script.
