Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Local installation of package in Red Hat / Fedora Linux Post 303011566 by drysdalk on Friday 19th of January 2018 07:53:51 PM

Hi,

I'm not 100% sure what you mean, sorry. The package will have had its files extracted underneath wherever you ran the cpio command. You might be able to just run /path/to/wherever/bin/whatever and it might just work, but equally it may not. As I mentioned previously, many packages are not designed to be re-locatable, and might misbehave or fail in unexpected ways as a result of not having their binaries, libraries and other support files in the locations they expect to find them. I'm not myself familiar with Erlang at all, so can't really give any package-specific advice here.

If it comes to it, then as I say you can always download the source of the package (assuming it has source code available, almost all packages do generally speaking) and compile it yourself, specifying exactly the directory you want to install the resulting binaries in. You don't normally have to be root or need to have sudo access to compile most things, if user permissions and access rights are ultimately your real problem here.
