This article will explain in detail how to install the RPM package on Arch Linux. The editor thinks it is very practical, so I share it for you as a reference. I hope you can get something after reading this article.

1. Install rpmextract

Rpmextract is a tool for extracting RPM. It unzips the contents of the RPM package to the current directory.

Since the directory structure packaged in the RPM file is based on the root directory, it is recommended to extract it directly under the root directory:

Cd / sudo rpmextract.sh ~ lujun9972/android-x86-7.1-r2.x86_64.rpm3, extract the script that is called when installing RPM

It is not enough to extract the files in the RPM package; the RPM file executes a script before / after installation (or uninstallation).

This script can be viewed by rpm-qp-- script file.rpm.

However, what if ArchLinux doesn't have a rpm command? We can run a CentOS on a virtual machine or directly use docker to simulate a CentOS environment.

Docker run-- rm-v ~ lujun9972/android-x86-7.1-r2.x86_64.rpm:/tmp/android.rpm centos rpm-qp-- scripts / tmp/android.rpmpostinstall scriptlet (using / bin/sh): / etc/os-releasemkdir-p / android-7.1-r2/dataif ["$ID" = "debian"-o "$ID_LIKE" = "debian"]; then grubcfg=/boot/grub/custom.cfgelif mountpoint-Q / boot/efi Then grubcfg=/boot/efi/EFI/$ID/custom.cfg & & efi=efielse grubcfg=/boot/grub2/custom.cfgfiecho-e "menuentry\" Android-x86 7.1-r2\ "{\ n\ tsearch-- set=root-- file / android-7.1-r2/kernel\ n\ tlinux$efi / android-7.1-r2/kernel quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.selinux=permissive buildvariant=userdebug\ n\ tinitrd$efi / android-7.1-r2/initrd.img\ n}" > $grubcfgecho-e "menuentry\" Android-x86 7 .1-R2 (DEBUG mode)\ "{\ n\ tsearch-- set=root-- file / android-7.1-r2/kernel\ n\ tlinux$efi / android-7.1-r2/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.selinux=permissive buildvariant=userdebug DEBUG=2\ n\ tinitrd$efi / android-7.1-r2/initrd.img\ n}" > $grubcfg if ["$ID" = "debian"-o "$ID_LIKE" = "debian"] Then sed-I's / ^ grub _ HIDDEN_/#GRUB_HIDDEN_/' / etc/default/grub update-grubfipostuninstall scriptlet (using / bin/sh):. / etc/os-releaseif ["$ID" = "debian"-o "$ID_LIKE" = "debian"]; then grubcfg=/boot/grub/custom.cfgelif mountpoint-Q / boot/efi; then grubcfg=/boot/efi/EFI/$ID/custom.cfgelse grubcfg=/boot/grub2/custom.cfgfiif ["$1" = "1"]; then new_prefix= `dirname $(grep initrd $grubcfg | head-1 | awk'{print $2}') `if ["$new_prefix"! = "/ android-7.1-r2"] Then rmdir $new_prefix/data mv / android-7.1-r2/data $new_prefix rmdir / android-7.1-r2 fielse rmdir / android-7.1-r2/data / android-7.1-r2 rm-f $grubcfgfi4, call the installation script

With any luck, you can install RPM.
