rpm2txz

[noob51]

Hi,
I don't see rpm2txz installed, I need that to install my brother ds 740 usb scanner, rpm2tgz desn't seem to work.
The scanner worked in slackware 15 rc2, but only as root.

Any suggestions.

[djemos]

install rpm2tgz package
rpm2txz included as a link to rpm2targz

Code: Select all

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Φεβ   3  2022 /usr/bin/rpm2txz -> rpm2targz

[noob51]

Code: Select all

root@hawk:~# lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Φεβ   3  2022 /usr/bin/rpm2txz -> rpm2targz
-bash: lrwxrwxrwx: command not found

Something I did wrong.

-bash: lrwxrwxrwx: command not found

After installing the package, do

Code: Select all

which rpm2txz

or

Code: Select all

type -p rpm2txz

in the command line. This tells you if the binary or script is installed and in $PATH.
