  • 1.  Unabled to install gdb rpm

    Posted Wed October 28, 2020 01:29 AM
    Unable to install gdb rpm. I downloaded the rpm from the IBM Linux toolbox website and I also tried to install the RPM from the iso image ESD-AIX_Toolbox_for_Linux_Applications_Src_92018.iso

    I tried both from smitty installp and rpm -ivh. Both methods indicate it completed but I dont see it when I run either rpm -qa or lslpp -L .

    Any ideas?


    root@_NEW_prdetl02:/home/rragasa/RPMs # rpm -ivh gdb-8.1.1-3.src.rpm

    Looks like you are trying to install the source rpm.
    Please make sure you install the binary rpm gdb-8.1.1-3.aix6.1.ppc.rpm
    ESD-AIX_Toolbox_for_Linux_Applications_Src_92018.iso is a source iso, you must also be having another one which will have binary rpm packages.
