The nearest goal is to be able to package files up to 4G, on both 32-bit 64-bit architectures, provided that cpio payload size also does not exceed 4G. More specifically, the limit is 2^32-2, while 2^32-1 remains special (this is not my own invention, I adopt it from rpm.org). If the limit is exceeded, rpmbuild should fail gracefully instead of writing malformed packages with truncated integer tags. (Supporting 4G+ files is a distant goal - neither rpm-4.0 nor apt-rpm can handle them yet. Besides, it's not clear if producing such big packages is even a good idea, unless one wishes to package p0rn.) |
