How to make rpm auto install dependencies

问题:

I have built two RPM packages

• proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm
• libtest1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm

proj1 depends on the file libtest1.so being present and it is reflected correctly in the RPM packages as seen here:

user@my-pc:~$ rpm -qp --requires proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm
libtest1.so()(64bit)

user@my-pc:~$ rpm -qp --provides libtest1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm
libtest1.so()(64bit)

The installation of proj1 fails due to a missing dependency.

user@my-pc:~$ rpm -ivh proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libtest1.so()(64bit) is needed by proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm

How do I ensure that libtest1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm is installed automatically during the installation of proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm?

I did try the --aid option with rpm -i as described here but it didn't work for me.

Is there any other way?

Thanks for any help.

Create a (local) repository and use yum to have it resolve the dependencies for you.

The CentOS wiki has a nice page providing a how-to on this. CentOS wiki HowTos/CreateLocalRepos.

---

Summarized and further minimized (not ideal, but quickest):

1. Create a directory for you local repository, e.g. /home/user/repo.
2. Move the RPMs into that directory.

3. Fix some ownership and filesystem permissions:

   # chown -R root.root /home/user/repo
   

4. Install the createrepo package if not installed yet, and run

   # createrepo /home/user/repo
   # chmod -R o-w+r /home/user/repo
   

5. Create a repository configuration file, e.g. /etc/yum.repos.d/myrepo.repo containing

   [local]
   name=My Awesome Repo
   baseurl=file:///home/user/repo
   enabled=1
   gpgcheck=0
   

6. Install your package using

   # yum install packagename
   

回答2:

The link @gertvdijk provided shows a quick way to achieve the desired results without configuring a local repository:

$ yum --nogpgcheck localinstall packagename.arch.rpm

Just change packagename.arch.rpm to the RPM filename you want to install.

Edit Just a clarification, this will automatically install all dependencies that are already available via system YUM repositories.

If you have dependencies satisfied by other RPMs that are not in the system's repositories, then this method will not work unless each RPM is also specified along with packagename.arch.rpm on the command line.

回答3:

For dnf users just use dnf install *.rpm, localinstall is no longer needed.

回答4:

For me worked just with

# yum install ffmpeg-2.6.4-1.fc22.x86_64.rpm

And automatically asked authorization to dowload the depedencies. Below the example, i am using fedora 22

[root@localhost lukas]# yum install ffmpeg-2.6.4-1.fc22.x86_64.rpm

回答5:

I found a simpler solution. If you have all the RPMs in the same directory, all you need to do is,

$ sudo rpm -i *.rpm

rpm seems to figure out the correct order to install these and installs the RPMs.

回答6:

Matthew's answer awoke many emotions, because of the fact that it still lacks a minor detail. The general command would be:

# yum --nogpgcheck localinstall <package1_file_name> ... <packageN_file_name>

The package_file_name above can include local absolute or relative path, or be a URL (possibly even an URI).

Yum would search for dependencies among all package files given on the command line AND IF IT FAILS to find the dependencies there, it will also use any configured and enabled yum repositories.

Neither the current working directory, nor the paths of any of package_file_name will be searched, except when any of these directories has been previously configured as an enabled yum repository.

So in the OP's case the yum command:

# cd <path with pkg files>; yum --nogpgcheck localinstall ./proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm ./libtest1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm

would do, as would do the rpm:

# cd <path with pkg files>; rpm -i proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm libtest1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm

The differencve between these yum and rpm invocations would only be visible if one of the packages listed to be installed had further dependencies on packages NOT listed on the command line.

In such a case rpm will just refuse to continue, while yum would use any configured and enabled yum repositories to search for dependencies, and may possibly succeed.

The current working directory will NOT be searched in any case, except when it has been previously configured as an enabled yum repository.

回答7:

I ran into this and what worked for me was to run yum localinstall enterPkgNameHere.rpm from inside the directory where the .rpm file is located.

Note: replace the enterPkgNameHere.rpm with the name of your .rpm file.

回答8:

Simple just run the following command.

sudo dnf install *package.rpm

Enter your password and you are done.

In the case of openSUSE Leap 15, I'm receiving similar error:

> sudo rpm -i opera-stable_53.0.2907.68_amd64.rpm 
[sudo] password for root: 
warning: opera-stable_53.0.2907.68_amd64.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA512 Signature, key ID a5c7ff72: NOKEY
error: Failed dependencies:
    at is needed by opera-stable-53.0.2907.68-0.x86_64

I run this command to figure out what are the dependencies:

> sudo zypper install opera-stable_53.0.2907.68_amd64.rpm

The following 4 NEW packages are going to be installed:

Continue? [y/n/...? shows all options] (y): n

Then I run this command to install dependencies:

The following 3 NEW packages are going to be installed:

Continue? [y/n/...? shows all options] (y): y

Then I run this to install the rpm file:

> sudo rpm -i opera-stable_53.0.2907.68_amd64.rpm

I'm not sure if it is the best practice, however it solved my issue.

Step1: copy all the rpm pkg in given locations

Step2: if createrepo is not already installed, as it will not be by default, install it.

[root@pavangildamysql1 8.0.11_rhel7]# yum install createrepo

Step3: create repository metedata and give below permission

[root@pavangildamysql1 8.0.11_rhel7]# chown -R root.root /scratch/PVN/8.0.11_rhel7
[root@pavangildamysql1 8.0.11_rhel7]# createrepo /scratch/PVN/8.0.11_rhel7

Process of generating RPM from source file:

1. Download source file with.gz extention.
2. Install rpm-build and rpmdevtools from yum install. (rpmbuild folder will be generated...SPECS,SOURCES,RPMS.. folders will should be generated inside the rpmbuild folder).
3. Copy the source code.gz to SOURCES folder.(rpmbuild/SOURCES)
4. Untar the tar ball by using the following command.
   • go to SOURCES folder :rpmbuild/SOURCES where tar file is present. command: e.g tar -xvzf httpd-2.22.tar.gz httpd-2.22 folder will be generated in the same path. Check if apr and apr-util and there in httpd-2.22/srclib folder. If apr and apr-util doesn't exist download latest version from apache site,untar it and put it inside httpd-2.22/srclib folder. Also make sure you have pcre install in your system.
5. Go to extracted folder and then type below command: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 --with-included-apr --enable-proxy --enable-proxy-balancer --with-mpm=worker --enable-mods-static=all
6. Run below command once the configure is successful: make
7. After successful execution of make command run: checkinstall in the same folder. (if you don't have checkinstall software please download latest version from site) Also checkinstall software has bug which can be solved by following way: locate checkinstallrc and then replace TRANSLATE = 1 to TRANSLATE=0 using vim command. Also check for exclude package: EXCLUDE="/selinux"
8. checkinstall will ask for option (type R if you want tp build rpm for source file)
9. Done! .rpm file will be built in RPMS folder inside rpmbuild/RPMS file.
