You need the install scripts in the rpm. Luckily alien handles the
conversion OK. I got around the ppc64 target issue by unpacking all
of
the rpms and changing the target from ppc64 to powerpc:
mkdir tmp
cd tmp
for i in ../*rpm
do
alien -g --scripts $i
done
for i in `find . -name control`
do
perl -i -p -e 's/ppc64/powerpc/' $i
done
for i in `ls -d * |grep -v orig`
do
cd $i
./debian/rules binary
cd ..
done
Then install the debs and run the configure script. You can try and
convert /opt/ibmcmp/vac/7.0/bin/new_install to understand debs or
else
just run the vac_configure script directly. Assuming you dont have a
biarch toolchain (which is the case with debian), and you have a
64bit
capable toolchain in usr/local/ppc64, you can run:
/opt/ibmcmp/vac/7.0/bin/vac_configure -smprt /opt/ibmcmp/xlsmp/1.5
-mass /opt/ibmcmp/xlmass/4.1 -vac /opt/ibmcmp/vac/7.0 -install
/opt/ibmcmp/vac/7.0/etc/vac.base.cfg -gcc /usr -gcc64 /usr/local/
ppc64
-vacpp /opt/ibmcmp/vacpp/7.0 -vacpprt /opt/ibmcmp/vacpp/7.0 -vaclic
/opt/ibmcmp/vac/7.0
Hi,
All the alien part worked perfectly, thanks. I'm on the configuration
now...

PS:the trial version seems to be 6.0 not 7.0... Hope G5 will also be
optimized by this version of xlc
