RE: Relocatable package problem

[Agarwal Deepesh-A19519 <deepesh motorola com>]

Thanks. I did eactly the same and it did make RPM without any errros!
..but when i tried installing it, i got and error "package XXX not
relocatable"

Command used to install the package:
rpm -i -vv --prefix /tmp TAOlib-1.0-1.i386.rpm 

My spec file
------------------------------------
%define ace_base /tmp
Prefix: %{ace_base}

%files
%{ace_base}/libACE.so.5.3a.1
-----------------------------------

- Any other clues, i'm really tired of making it relocatable ...
- What command do you use to query if the package is relocatable?

Thanks,
Deepesh.

I do relocatable packages in 4.2, and I just define a macro like:

	%define ace_base /where/ace/goes/by/default

And then do:
	Prefix:  %{ace_base} 
	...
	%files
	%{ace_base}/file1
	...
	%{ace_base}/fileN

Cheers...james
