guys, I'm trying to run Fedora VE on top of Debian Sarge, using the precreated Fedora templates, but yum is not there in the VE installed. How can I add yum to my VEs? I see vzyum but it appears to only work on Red Hat, and my host OS is Debian...
I downloaded the vzyum tarball and extracted it, but it does not include a vzyum binary...the only executable I find is in:
/usr/share/vzyum/bin/yum
When I try to run this, I get:
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:
No module named rpm
Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.
It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.3.5 (#2, Sep 4 2005, 22:01:42)
[GCC 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13)]
If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please send this
message to <yum@lists.linux.duke.edu>.
Is there something I'm doing wrong? Can anyone tell me how to add yum to an Fedora VE if I'm running Debian in the host?
Thanks!

I'll answer my own question.
To fix this, I had do install the following (I converted them to .deb files with alien -d):
ii vzpkg-2.7.0 18.noarch-2 Converted Slackware tgz package
ii vzquota 3.0.8-1dso2 server virtualization solution - quota tools
ii vzrpm43-4.3.3 7_nonptl.6.i386-2 Converted Slackware tgz package
ii vzrpm43-python-4.3.3 7_nonptl.6.i386-2 Converted Slackware tgz package
ii vzrpm44-4.4.1 22.5.i386-2 Converted Slackware tgz package
ii vzrpm44-python-4.4.1 22.5.i386-2 Converted Slackware tgz package
ii vztmpl-centos-4-2.0 2.i386-2 Converted Slackware tgz package
ii vztmpl-fedora-core-5-2.0 2.i386-2 Converted Slackware tgz package
ii vzyum-2.4.0 11.noarch-2 Converted Slackware tgz package
Notice those vztmpl files...important to have to get package metadata. THEN, you have to run vzpkgcache <os>...like:
# vzpkgcache centos-4
Finally, you should be able to run vzyum. However, this depends on your python install...in my case, I had to run it a couple of times, see what failed, and then install additional python modules (urlgrabber, libxml, etc).
Hope this helps you.
