I'm trying to unpack a pretty small rpm (5.5MB) according the instructions given here and elsewhere. It's an Oracle InstantClient, if that makes a difference, and I'm trying to install it from windows 10's linux subsystem
I've successfully installed alien, but the actual sudo alien
command isn't terminating. I've tried it both plain (sudo alien filename.rpm
) and with some suggested arguments (sudo alien -k --scripts filename.rpm
), waited 15 minutes both times, and it still hangs.
rpm
file on Ubuntu?
