The RPM Package Manager

 The RPM Package Manager is a powerful command line driven package
management system capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying,
querying, and updating computer software packages. Each software
package consists of an archive of files along with information about
the package like its version, a description, and the like.  There
is also a related API ("Application Program Interface"), permitting
advanced developers to bypass 'shelling out' to a command line, and
to manage such transactions from within a native coding language.

rpm4 history


v. 1.17
date: 2007/05/19 19:57:44;  author: flz;  state: Exp;  lines: +1 -1
- Welcome X.org 7.2 \o/.
- Set X11BASE to ${LOCALBASE} for recent ${OSVERSION}.
- Bump PORTREVISION for ports intalling files in ${X11BASE}.

v. 1.16 date: 2007/03/23 15:14:27; author: glewis; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 . Drop maintainership.
v. 1.15 date: 2007/03/23 10:24:22; author: pav; state: Exp; lines: +3 -2 - Fix after objformat removal PR: ports/109468 (based on) Submitted by: Tsurutani Naoki Approved by: maintainer timeout (glewis; 3 weeks)
v. 1.14 date: 2006/05/03 05:14:03; author: edwin; state: Exp; lines: +0 -1 Remove USE_REINPLACE from ports in categories starting with A.
v. 1.13 date: 2006/02/23 10:34:20; author: ade; state: Exp; lines: +11 -3 Conversion to a single libtool environment. Approved by: portmgr (kris)
v. 1.12 date: 2005/11/15 06:47:48; author: ade; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order. The code present in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself. Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it. Preliminary documentation can be found at: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the Porters Handbook. Light blue touch-paper. Run.
v. 1.11 date: 2005/11/14 16:39:51; author: glewis; state: Exp; lines: +0 -3 . bzip2 has been in the base system since 4.4, so no need to check for it. PR: 88985 Submitted by: edwin
v. 1.10 date: 2005/06/02 16:43:18; author: glewis; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 . Change rpmrc to support amd64 and also to indicate that i386 and amd64 are compatible. This differs from PR 80922 in that amd64 is made the canonical RPM architecture on that architecture rather than x86_64 as it is under Linux. . Bump PORTREVISION. PR: 80922 (based on)
v. 1.9 date: 2004/08/25 12:37:11; author: vs; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 s/mirror.ac.uk/mirrorservice.org PR: ports/69481 Submitted by: Tim Bishop, lesi@ Approved by: maintainer timeout
v. 1.8 date: 2004/06/09 21:07:42; author: glewis; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 . Use libtool 1.3.x rather than 1.4.x (thus removing the last port dependency on libtool14). Submitted by: ade
v. 1.7 date: 2004/03/30 19:20:14; author: krion; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 - Use USE_ICONV knob Approved by: portmgr
v. 1.6 date: 2004/03/19 23:01:40; author: glewis; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 . Link the python modules against libintl so they can actually be used. . Bump PORTREVISION.
v. 1.5 date: 2004/03/19 18:46:04; author: glewis; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 . No, it doesn't conflict with rpm2cpio as that installs rpm2cpio.pl, not rpm2cpio.
v. 1.4 date: 2004/03/09 19:40:38; author: glewis; state: Exp; lines: +16 -0 . Build and install API documentation if NOPORTDOCS isn't set. . Bump PORTREVISION for this change.
v. 1.3 date: 2004/03/05 18:56:40; author: glewis; state: Exp; lines: +4 -3 . Disable the javaglue for beecrypt. Its pointless and its broken (breaks the build). . Reformat CONFIGURE_ARGS.
v. 1.2 date: 2004/03/05 18:42:59; author: glewis; state: Exp; lines: +2 -3 . Fix fetch.
v. 1.1 date: 2004/03/05 02:26:10; author: glewis; state: Exp; Add a port of rpm 4.0.4: "The Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) is a powerful command line driven package management system capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying, querying, and updating computer software packages. Each software package consists of an archive of files along with information about the package like its version, a description, and the like. There is also a related API ("Application Program Interface"), permitting advanced developers to bypass 'shelling out' to a command line, and to manage such transactions from within a native coding language. WWW: http://www.rpm.org/" 4.0.4 was chosen because: . The only newer version available as a tarball (4.1) is buggy. . This version closely corresponds to our current default linux_base. . This version uses the version of popt we have in the tree (unfortunately it uses an earlier version of beecrypt). . This version is a lot less work to port than 4.2 (elfutils). However, I am considering how best this port could be updated to a more recent version (e.g. 4.1.1 or 4.2, probably the latter). This wasn't an update to the current rpm port as I haven't done enough testing of other ports that use rpm with it. Tested on 4.9/i386, 5.2/sparc64 and 5.2/alpha. =============================================================================
