Synopsis:          Update for gnorpm to work with rpm-4.0.2
Advisory ID:       RHBA-2001:034-04
Issue date:        2001-03-26
Updated on:        2001-03-28
Product:           Red Hat Linux
Keywords:          gnorpm rpm

1. Topic:

Updated package for gnorpm to use rpm-4.0.2 libraries.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 6.2 - alpha, i386
Red Hat Linux 7.0 - alpha, i386

3. Problem description:

In the errata for rpm-4.0.2, there is a new shared library librpmio.so that contains symbols that used to be in librpm.so. Executables that linked against the shared librpm.so need to be relinked with the new librpmio shared library.

If you have upgraded to rpm-4.0.2 on Red Hat 6.x, then you should upgrade gnorpm from this errata as well.

4. Solution:

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directly *only* contains the desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system.

7. Verification:

MD5 sum                           Package Name

df56ee129d72fa4d076fba23dcb02304 6.2/i386/gnorpm-0.95.1-6.6x.i386.rpm
ff9af85fbf08cc254c924c3368191f26 7.0/SRPMS/gnorpm-0.95.1-6.7x.src.rpm
9901253e2ca8df06fa873e6305d0f2ae 7.0/alpha/gnorpm-0.95.1-6.7x.alpha.rpm
151516615aed7e168cdd74cca3c3a571 7.0/i386/gnorpm-0.95.1-6.7x.i386.rpm

You can verify each package with the following command:
rpm --checksig <filename>

If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or tampered with, examine only the md5sum with the following command:
rpm --checksig --nogpg <filename>
