I have installed (via rpm) all the pgcc-associated rpms for the i586 EXCEPT for pgcc-1.1-1.i586.rpm. Every time I try to "rpm -ivh ...", and no matter whatever other switches I use, it refuses to install the rpm, giving me the message (I used the -vv for very verbose option): "D: running postinstall script (if any) + /sbin/install-info --section=Programming: --entry=*pgcc:(pgcc). The pgccGNU C compiler. --info-dir=/opt/pgcc/info /opt/pgcc/info/pgcc.info.gz /sbin/install-info: Is a directory for /opt/pgcc/info/dir + /sbin/install-info --section=Programming: --entry=*cpp:(cpp). The pgcc C preprocessor. --info-dir=/opt/pgcc/info /opt/pgcc/info/cpp.info.gz /sbin/install-info: Is a directory for /opt/pgcc/info/dir execution of script failed error: pgcc-1.1-1.i586.rpm cannot be installed" What gives? I even tried installing using the --notriggers switch to suppress running of any scripts (like install-info) but it STILL runs the script and craps out. Please help...
