Error description
When using geninstall to preview the installation of RPM packages, the program may return a non-zero return code without displaying any messages. For example: # geninstall -p -I -pacgYX -d <media> -f RPM.bnd Validating RPM package selections ... # echo $? 15
Local fix
Check the amount of required space for the RPM packages to be installed by running the rpm command outside of geninstall. For example: /usr/bin/rpm -Uhv --test rpm1.rpm rpm2.rpm ... rpm15.rpm installing package perl-5.8.8-2 needs 62Mb on the /opt filesystem installing package readline-6.2-5 needs 64Mb on the /opt filesystem installing package wget-1.15-1 needs 66Mb on the /opt filesystem installing package zlib-1.2.3-4 needs 67Mb on the /opt filesystem # echo $? 15
Problem summary
When using geninstall to preview the installation of RPM packages, the program may return a non-zero return code without displaying any messages. For example: # geninstall -p -I -pacgYX -d <media> -f RPM.bnd Validating RPM package selections ... # echo $? 15
Problem conclusion
Allowed space requirement messages to be included in geninstall preview operation and set return code to 0 if no other errors exist.
