Re: [Ltib] freescale ltib config problem

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Giorgio,

Which version of LTIB is this (the name of the ISO)?  It may be an issue 
with an older version.  The current version on Savannah CVS is known to 
work with Ubuntu 9.10 provided you have rpm correctly installed on the host.

The actual failure looks as though the rpm database for the host has not 
been initialised and/or you don't have sudo permissions.  First make 
sure you have sudo permissions (without password) enabled for rpm as 
should be prompted for when you first run ltib.  Then you could try 
running 'sudo rpm --initdb' (warning this may destroy your host rpm 
database, but on Ubunutu this probably doesn't matter for you).  If you 
do that, remove /tmp/rpm* and re-try.

Maybe Freescale can help with this specific version of LTIB.

Regards, Stuart
