Hi,
I'm trying to install the net-1.0b1.epk package, which I downloaded from the
RedHat site. First I tried with the PkgAdmin.exe tool, running on Win-2000.
PkgAdmin failed so I tried the ecosadmin.tcl script from the command line,
which failed as well giving the following output:
$ cygtclsh80 ecosadmin.tcl add /cygwin/tmp/net-1.0b1.epk
ecosadmin error: extracting pkgadd.db:
child killed: write on pipe with no readers
/usr/bin/tar: Skipping to next header
/usr/bin/tar: Skipping to next header
/usr/bin/tar: Skipping to next header
/usr/bin/tar: pkgadd.db: Not found in archive
/usr/bin/tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
I viewed the ecosadmin.tcl script and when I changed
"exec > $ecosadmin::null_device gunzip < $abs_package | tar xf - $datafile"
into
"exec > $ecosadmin::null_device tar xf $abs_package $datafile"
all runs well if I gunzip the net-1.0b1.epk manually myself.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
Olaf.
