I have written a spec file for packaging my application in an rpm, but it reports a conflict when I am trying to update my service script in /etc/init.d/. This is a file that I do need to update/replace so how might I force the rpm to do that?
Code:
Summary: A program that increases WAN performance.

I want to change some thing inside the post install script of an existing rpm.there is any way to create a nearest spec file of this rpm, in order to change a bit the post install script inside this spec and then create again the rpm with the fixed spec file? no body wrote any program that can create spec file(99% identical from the orig spec file?)?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to debug a program that I crosscompiled on a arm9. The crosscompiler uses . spec files to create RPM packages for the target system. The program compiles and runs correctly except when i run the program with gdb and then type list I get this message: Code: 1 main.c: No such file or directory. in main.c I made sure I compiled the program with CFLAGS=-g by putting this in the .spec file. when the application crosscompiles (I believe) it shows it compiled succesfully with the -g flags: Code: checking whether gcc accepts -g... (cached) yes

I found that "autospec" can construct a spec file. But autospec-0.8-1 is not compatible with python 2.7.1 Moreover autospec seems to be considered as deprecated. Is there a more recent version or some other equivalent utility?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a set of rpm files to install the requirements for a program.I found a great utility named cpanspec that will create a spec file for perl modules and have started building rpm files. I was able to create an rpm file for Business::CreditCard as a regular user. Now I'm trying to build another module that requires B::CC, and rpmbuild -ba fails saying that I am missing B::CC. I don't want to install it just to create another rpm file.Is there a way to make rpmbuild "think" that B::CC is installed in the build environment without installing it on the system?
View 1 Replies View Relatedis there a way to specify that I need a 32bit version of a certain library on the "Requires" line of a SPEC file?Since my software contain (a lot of) binaries from other sources (not always RPM compatible) I had to do "AutoReqProv: No" so I can do it manually.Is there a way to explicid say that I need the 32bit version of some library?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have inherited our Linux packaging and as the number of versions increase, the number of conflicts is starting to get a bit unmanageable. I believe the easiest way would have been to keep the package names the same and just change the release in the spec file but unfortunately I am past that as a lot of these packages are rolled out to our estate. (I am told there were reasons for not keeping the package name the same and incrementing the version/release)
Is it possible to wildcard conflicts so I don't need to keep adding as new versions are created. For example, instead of using all the conflicts below, have something along the lines of AAtest45* <= 1.4 & BBtest45* <= 1.4 Meaning that all I would need to do was change this to 1.5 at the next release (the packages below version matched the release in the spec file)

Asuming I have two files, one large file and one small file, I want to write the smaller file to the large file without overwriting the remaining part of the larger file.
Both are binary files, and the large file can become very large, so I want to avoid copying the whole file, as that will take some time. Is there any standard Linux console utility to do this, or do I need to write it myself?
I have to shred a disk from a custom program. Now I open the disk (/dev/sdaX) from a C program and write /dev/urandom to it. But, most of the time the disk is being used by other programs. At least a 5-10 programs will have files opened on that disk. I cannot kill all the programs as some of them are critical. (Now, don't ask me why I am trying to overwrite a disk which is live and being used by some critical programs. Some moron designed it that way and gave me to implement). Sooner or later, write to /dev/sdaX will fail.
Is there any way (may be some flags that I can pass to open while opening a disk for writing) that I can use so that my overwrite continues even if other program is using the disk? (I am not bothered about what will the other program read and process from the disk when this happens)
I try to write to a file "date > file" but Linux says 'cannot overwrite existing file'. I tried chmod 755 but still cannot write to the file. What should I do?
View 2 Replies View RelatedFor example I want a file to be processed by sed, and then overwrite the file with sed's output. I would try this:
Code:
sed '<regex goes here>' myfile > myfile
But it doesn't work as expected, instead it empties the file (I am thinking that as the first byte comes out of sed, it overwrites the whole file and sed has nothing more to do). How can I make this work?
Code:
dd bs=8192 if=Image of=/dev/PS0
In the above command, I cant able to understand the option "of=/dev/PS0"
Whether it means,
1) to write the input file "Image" in to "/dev/PS0" of the Floppy device
or
2) to overwrite the same input file "Image" in a file format ("/dev/PS0") of Floppy.
I'm getting some funny behavior from ffmpeg when I'm trying to increase the volume of an mp3 file and have it overwrite itself. For example, if I execute the following command:
Code:
ffmpeg -i name.mp3 -vol 1024 -y name.mp3
it will code the first 5 seconds or so and then quit with:
Code:

I've recently left Windows behind for good and have come to Linux (Ubuntu.) However, I've run into problems after trying to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu. When I restarted my computer, I got a black screen with white text reading "Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported". I have the Ubuntu live cd and was able to try Ubuntu without having to install it, but after I put in a flash drive with Windows 7 on it, the Ubuntu CD has stopped working entirely.
The weird thing is, the computer that I installed Ubuntu on, already had Ubuntu and Windows 7 on it. And every OS was booting successfully. The reason I deleted the Ubuntu that was already on the computer, is because there were many different versions. I wanted to do a clean sweep and only have Ubuntu and Windows 7 installed on the computer. I know that if you try to dual boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu, Windows will overwrite the GRUB file, making it unable to dual boot.
My situation:
Host A: need sudo to access the file
Host B: need sudo to access/overwrite the target file
How to copy a file from host A to host B without creating temporaries? Is it possible?
