I have already used "apt-get insatll rpm" in Debian 3.1a.
But when I used rpm -ivh XXXX.rpm, the XXXX package can't be installed. And the error message showed below:
## error: cannot open package index using db3
## error: cannot open package database in var/lib/rpm
actually, there is no any rpm folder in /var/lib
please help me!!
Thanks a lot!!
You might want to reconfigure
You might want to reconfigure rpm first:
$ dpkg-reconfigure rpm
If that fails, try reinstalling the Debian rpm package.
If it still fails, well, submit a bug.
Thanks a lot
FYI!!
I have known the another solution, that is, transfer rpm-package to deb-package by Alien.
I get the same error message
I get the same error message when I install oralce 11gR1
