I am having problems installing my first rpm package under the Cygwin
environment.
I recently installed the latest standard cygwin packages (those that install
by default when running setup.exe and installing the latest packages from
the net). The output from running "cygcheck -s -v -r" is attached to the
bottom of this email.
I next installed rpm 3.0.4 from
http://atlas.spaceports.com/~cygwin/rpm/rpm-3.0.4-cygwin.tar.gz , and set up
the rpm database using the following instructions:
1. "rpm --initdb" (from http://cygwin.cjb.net/ )
2. "touch /etc/mtab" (from Chuck Wilson's post
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-07/msg01193.html )
Next, I ran "rpm -qa" just to make sure there were no error messages (there
weren't), and that the output showed that the rpm database was empty (it
was).
I then downloaded the RPM package that I wanted to install
( ftp://projects.sourceforge.net/pub/cygwin-rpm/packages/perl/perl-5.6.0-cygw
in1.1.rpm), into my home directory (i.e. /home/langston) which is mounted in
binmode:
$ mount
Device Directory Type Flags
E:\cygwin\bin /usr/bin system binmode
E:\cygwin\lib /usr/lib system binmode
E:\cygwin / system binmode
However, when I tried to install the perl RPM, I received the following cpio
error:
$ rpm -Uvh perl-5.6.0-cygwin1.1.rpm
user martin1 does not exist - using root
[snip]
user martin1 does not exist - using root
perl ##unpacking of archive failed: cpio: Bad magic
The "user martin1 does not exist - using root" error message isn't pertinent
(FYI its a warning, and not an error, due to building the perl RPM slightly
improperly).
When I tried to install the perl RPM from the net, I received the same
error:
$ rpm -Uvh
ftp://projects.sourceforge.net/pub/cygwin-rpm/packages/perl/perl-5.6.0-cygwi
n1.1.rpm
user martin1 does not exist - using root
[snip]
user martin1 does not exist - using root
perl ##unpacking of archive failed: cpio: Bad magic
I also received the same cpio error message when tried to install other RPM
packages from the sourceforge link above (i.e. I tried autoconf and
automake). I also tried just "installing" the RPMs using "rpm -i", but
received the same error message.
Can someone set me straight please? Thank you :-)

Sounds like the .rpm files got corrupted during the download (netscape
will do that) but you really should be directing this question to one of
the following people:
#1) rebum (the proprietor of the site where you got rpm.exe)
he's very accessible via email, IRC, or EFnet -- see the webpage at
http://atlas.spaceports.com/~cygwin/
#2) rebum (!!) (the proprietor of the site where you got the .rpm files)
Also, I *think* there may be a problem with rebum's rpm-3.0.4 package if
you try to unzip it using windows tools. The paths in the archive are
'/usr/lib/whatever' and windows happily complies -- but because cygwin
mounts '/lib' on top of '/usr/lib' all the stuff that WinZip put into
'/usr/lib' is hidden.
A) don't unpack using windows tools -- use cygwin tar and gunzip, for
.tar.gz archives, or "unzip" for .zip archives (see
http://cygutils.netpedia.net/V1.1/unzip-5.41/ )
B) using explorer, move the stuff in /usr/lib into /lib.
Good luck!
--Chuck
P.S. I did some of the initial ports of db, rpm, etc, but many folks
have taken my stuff and moved forward, including Rebum, Rue Satoh, and
Michael Ring. I can't personally support other people's ports of "my"
packages, only my own version. I'm sure you see why.
