This is a very strange one. I have been trying to upgrade via rpm a redhat
system 6.0 (with many upgrades) to xfree40. I am useing the rawhide rpms
from redhat for this and was trying for quite some time. Two diffrent
versions of the same rpm kept giveing me this same error:
XFree86 ###################unpacking of archive failed
on file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults: cpio: unlink failed - Bad file
descriptor
I then grabed redhat 6.2 and installed it from scratch. by this time there
was a new version of XFree86 rpm and it is still giveing me this same
problem. I am going to see if I can grab the .src.rpm and do it from there
but it seems that this cant be just me having this problem and if it is I
would like to know why. two completely diffrent systems and 3 diffrent
versions of the same rpm.
thanks for any advice
Bill Warner
