We are trying to use rpm as our application’s package management
system on Solaris 10. I wonder if anyone has experience installing rpm onto
Solaris 10, preferably yum as well.
*
If I compile it on Solaris 10, there should be also a lot
gnu c libraries required I guess.

Thanks in advance

how to install rpm onto Solaris 10?

Hi guys,

Not is necessary to use gnu c lib or gcc itself to use rpm on Solaris: for maximum portability i raccomend rpm5 (http://rpm5.org) of course. RPM5 has been ported to many platform, with a mixture of diverse compiler and different c library as Clibc. OTHO, if you want a simple porting of rpm5 on solaris 10 you can use the openpkg* http://www.openpkg.org/* project. AFAICT most client sun use it.

how to install rpm onto Solaris 10?
Hi hth,
*
Thanks for the great information!
*
I looked at openpkg first. It sounds
perfect from the features page on the web site, but it doesn’t seem to
have been active since 2006.
*
Then I looked at rpm5.org. I followed its
doc page, it shows that the most recent doc is http://docs.fedoraproject.org/drafts/rpm-guide-en/
. In section 19.1.1, it tells me to find rpm for various platforms at www.rpm.org/platforms/, over there, it
redirected me to http://www.sunrpms.org/ where
it provides Solaris 10 Sparc pkg of rpm. Oh yeah!
*
Point my mouse to the link, it shows that
it is actually rpm-4.0.4-sparc-sol10.pkg. I come back to rpm 4!
*
Anyway, I got a pkg package of rpm which should
be installable on Solaris 10. I will give it a go!
*
Cheers,
Yukun

yep
openpkg is very active, it is one of the principal member of rpm5, most solaris box run it and, if you like, has also had commercial support (http://www.openpkg.com)
*
Then I looked at rpm5.org. I followed its
doc page, it shows that the most recent doc is http://docs.fedoraproject.org/drafts/rpm-guide-en/
. In section 19.1.1, it tells me to find rpm for various platforms at www.rpm.org/platforms/,
Sigh. Jeff Johnson, the "rpm" mantainer and developer for more than 10 years, work now on http://rpm5.org. And, let me repeat,* rpm5
is very portable on platform* different from* Linux: rpm of http://rpm.org* isn't so portable. Guess why in 2008 AIX 5.3 use rpm 3.0.5 (1999 )?
Some google search on the argument can help
JMHO, YMMV

how to install rpm onto Solaris 10?
Sounds cool from your email. Though I didn’t
see any openpkg release growing since 2006, I will give a go anyway.
