How do you install .rpm by command line (RH9.0)
I know how to install by .tar....
tar zxvf 3ddesktop-x.y.z.tar.gz But how from the cmd line by rpm? RH9.0 ... thx |
First off - man rpm will give you all of the rpm options.
Quick taster: rpm -ivh <packagename>.rpm : -i = install, -v = verbose, -h = hash marks for progress rpm -Uvh <packagename>.rpm : -U = upgrade (and it needs to be capital U) rpm -e <packagename>.rpm : -e to remove |
rpm is used to install rpm files only. but if you have downloaded tar.gz or tar.bz2 after extracting from command line type
./configure (this configures the files making the ready to be compiled) then make (used to make the packege) then makeinstall (to install the package) Jus thought this might help some newbie |
