IBM has this handy install option called 'install from all
available'. Say if you want to install something like clamav in
/software/clamav. so you call it with that option and it checks the
dependencies and looks thru all the files in the dir and uses any
that are required. Do you know if something like that available for
yum or dnf?
I don't remember yum being able to read packages from a directory
rather than a full-blown repo. DNF came in after I switched to Ubuntu.
Sorry.
Hi - I also meant to ask what you meant about not satisfying the installer
I thought it said it looked in that lib archive ?
I extracted the file from openssl3 and added it to libcrypto.a but
its still failing.
Extracting the file from another package and adding it *may* help the
program to run, but it wont satisfy the rpm installer.
I meant that the openssl3 package probably has libcrypto.a(libcrypto.so.3)
rathr than libcrypto.a(libcrypto.so.1.1).
Also if you found the library/object libcrypto.a(libcrypto.so.1.1)
and put the file in the correct place, then it would be found
if you could run clamav, but dnf/yum/rpm wont know it is there
(since they didn't put it there) so still wont allow you to install clamav.
( I'm not used to .a libraries in rpms (except in -devel packages)
and guess that the installer confirms that a .a library has the
required object inside, and then installs the whole library.)
