#36318: Update rpm to 4.9? ---------------------+--------------------- Reporter: twic@… | Owner: n3npq@… Type: update | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: rpm | ---------------------+--------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * cc: afb@… (added) * owner: macports-tickets@… => n3npq@… Old description:
The current version of the rpm port is 4.4.9:
https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/sysutils/rpm/Portfile
There is a separate port for 4.5:
https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/sysutils/rpm45/Portfile
The latest stable version upstream is 4.9.1.3:
http://www.rpm.org/wiki/Download
And, FWIW, that's what's in current versions of Fedora:
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/rpm
There is a 4.10.0:
But it's not widely used yet.
Is there any chance of updating MacPorts's version of RPM to something more recent? Is this something i could help with?
I realise that there are also 5.x versions, but this is a fork. I'm interested in having a recent 4.x version for consistency with Fedora and related Linuxes.
