Okay, so today, I messed around with this thing called “rpm 41,” and let me tell you, it was a bit of a journey. It all started when I needed to get some packages sorted out on my Linux box. You know, the usual stuff – installing, updating, and just keeping things tidy.
First off, I fired up the terminal, feeling all techy and stuff. I’ve used ‘rpm’ before, but it’s been a while, so I was a bit rusty. I typed in rpm and a bunch of options showed up. It was a bit overwhelming, to be honest.
- I started with something simple, like checking what packages were already installed.
- Then, I tried installing a new package. I found the package I needed, but it wasn’t as straightforward as I hoped. I had to make sure I had all the right dependencies and stuff. It was a bit of a hassle, but I managed.
- Updating packages was next on the list. I used ‘rpm’ to see which packages had updates available and then proceeded to update them. It took a while, but I got it done.
One hiccup I ran into was this “EasyAntiCheat” thing. I didn’t need it, but I stumbled upon it while navigating the folders. The support page mentioned I could install the service manually by going into the EasyAntiCheat folder inside the game’s installation folder. Good to know, I guess, but not relevant to what I was doing. And then there was a thing about “Parsec” for remote desktop, low latency and all. Sounded cool, but again, not what I was there for.

Another thing I noticed was that this “python-setuptools” doesn’t come with “easy_install” anymore, at least not since April 2018. Found that on some forum. I also bumped into a guide for setting up Fedora 41 Workstation. Didn’t need it, but it seemed pretty detailed, with revisions and all.
Anyway, after a few hours of trial and error, I finally got everything sorted out. My system is up-to-date, and I’ve got all the packages I need installed. It wasn’t the smoothest process, but I learned a lot along the way. It’s always good to get your hands dirty with these things, right?
So, yeah, that’s my story with “rpm 41.” Not the most exciting thing in the world, but hey, it’s all part of the fun of tinkering with computers. I hope you enjoyed my little adventure. Until next time, keep on tinkering!
