Restrictions with the Use of RPM Packages
The following restrictions apply with the use of RPM packages:
- Mixed dependency configurations are not supported, for example, if a PIF product depends on an RPM product, which depends on another PIF product.
- RPM packages are accessed solely with the help of library.dct.
- RPM autorequirements, for example, to shared libraries, shells, and so on, are not supported.
- Disk space check (for complete transaction) is not available
- Backup of RPM packages is not supported, so no rollback is available.
- As appropriate RPM information is not provided, the progress of RPM package removal cannot be shown in the progress dialog.
- Cancel of an RPM installation terminates after the particular RPM installation has been completed, to keep the RPM operation consistent.
- You must not provide both types of packages, PIF and RPM, with the same product name in the same directory.
