Title: ArcaOS 5.02 yum cannot install openssh-clients
Post by: Mathias on June 05, 2018, 12:49:36 am
... as it cannot execute cpio, but cpio is installed.

Hi again, this time trying out ArcaOS, finally. *__*

Using yum (GUI) to install openssh-clients returns an error dialog (of yum) that says "Error unpacking rpm package openssh-clients-5.9p1-1.oc00.i686"

running "rpm -U openssh-clients-5.9p1-1.oc00.i686" on the OS/2 console says:

What's wrong with cpio?
ArcaOS install is 2 days young, updated via yum (GUI) until no new packages could be found anymore.

Does anybody have an idea? @_@

Same error here. Probably a bad archive.
Seems it's been broken for over a year, http://trac.netlabs.org/rpm/ticket/251 (http://trac.netlabs.org/rpm/ticket/251)

Ohh I see! Thanks Dave!

Appears this might take a while to get fixed. ; ) - I'll see if there is a previous version, and go with this one in the meanwhile.
