Hi All ,

I created RPM on one system and installing on the same system is
working fine.
But when I try to install this RPM on a different system it is giving
below error :

"error: test-2.0-2.i386.rpm: rpmReadSignature failed: region trailer:
BAD, tag 15872
type 2047 offset 20480 count 4096"

Any idea on how to go about this ?

Thanks
Veda

Maybe this'll come in handy:
