Dependencies

[c_andy_man]

When I want to install wine on a custom root directory, there are lots of dependency-warnings. Just for a test i installed it with

Code: Select all

rpm -Uvh --nodeps --root /wineroot

. That works until the %post script which is

Code: Select all

%post -p /sbin/ldconfig
%postun -p /sbin/ldconfig

the installation stops there but the path is created corectly and usable (i think).

What does this post script do? I know -p as a parameter but not as a command.

You can't do that with packages that don't support relocation.

Compile Wine from source and install in any directory you like. Just specify where you want it to go with './configure --prefix=<my_dir>'.
