FC2t3: error installing Sun j2re rpm on kickstart %post
Hi!
First of all this is not a "jvm does not work" problem; it works just fine,
after I manage to install it.
I've been checking my kickstarts against FC2 test 3; other than small changes,
the only problem is that installing the j2re rpm on %post gives the following
error:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Retrieving http://kickstart/redhat/fc2/extra/java/j2re.rpm
Preparing... ##################################################
j2re ##################################################
error: unpacking of archive failed on file
/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_02/CHANGES;40967cf3: cpio: lsetfilecon failed -
Inappropriate ioctl for device
---------------------------------------------------------------
j2re.rpm is a symlink on the webserver to j2re 1.4.2_02.
However, if I just give the rpm -Uvh command after the install is complete,
using exactly the same http url, everything works fine (besides the
file_contexts warnings).
The CHANGES file mentioned on the error message is the first file on the RPM.
Other RPMs are installed ok, so this is not a generic rpm-in-%post issue.
On the rpm package changelog I found this:
---------------------------------------------------------------
* Qua Mar 10 2004 Jeff Johnson <jbj(a)jbj.org> 4.3-0.20
- add sparcv8 and enable elf32/elf64 Zon sparc64 (#117302).
- fix: --querybynumber looped.
- fix: ENOTSUP filter from lsetfilecon borkage.
...
Sex Mar 05 2004 Jeff Johnson <jbj(a)redhat.com> 4.3-0.18
- selinux: ignore ENOTSUP return from lsetfilecon.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Could it be that that the 'rpm' binary in post is different (older) than the
one that ends up installed?
And maybe this could be related to this bug?
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=120552
All SELinux-related stuff was left at the default values.
Worth putting in bugzilla?
