Where to download rpmlib

I assume Duplicati is more interested in a universal install rather than speed. Would forcing xz get that?

Might need to get in an expert or several…. Sounds like a few distributions are moving towards zstd for packaging. Arch has done so as well. But can a distro that uses zstd as its own standard generally also install older standards such as xz? There are also lots of old distros installed, and Duplicati presumably wants to fit as many as possible.

Few installs? Yep that looks like the problem. I was able to reproduce the issue. OpenSUSE Thank you for the hint, but it seems that rpm2cpio on opensuse leap Works nicely for older versions, though. Whats with the syntax of something followed by parentheses? How do I make my system compatible with this rpm file? Scripting languages such as Perl and Tcl allow for add-on modules. Your package may require some of these add-on modules. RPM uses a special syntax with parenthesis to indicate script module dependencies.

This suggests you're trying to install the epel-release rpm on a system for which it was not designed. For CentOS 5, you want epel-release You might want to read the EPEL documentation before you proceed, which would have answered this question as well as others you might have. Right, because those features aren't available on CentOS 5.

From the perspective of yum you've asked it for magic unicorns. It can't find any. Install the EPEL signing key. If you are building your own RPMs and run into this problem, it's because rpmbuild uses different digest algorithms and different compression based on the operating system packaging the RPM. The following can be added to your spec file for improved compatibility.

These settings are pulled from a spec file that was generated by fpm. So if you're seeing this issue installing something, it's because you're probably using packages built for a different distro. The links posted on the documentation are redirects that somehow?

Did what the thread said and then the rest of the EPEL docs worked out. Click here to see the post LQ members have rated as the most helpful post in this thread. You are getting that error because the packages you are trying to install are compressed using lzma, and your current version of rpm doesn't not apparently support it.

You need to upgrade rpm and the rpm libs. Cheers, Josh PS - If you really were a software engineer, I highly doubt you would be asking this question. Just my ten cents Welcome to LQ. Please only use packages meant for EL5. Last edited by knudfl; at AM. Post 5, shriakntmore : Welcome to LQ. Which OS are you using? Solution : Please use rpm packages meant for your OS.
