Problem with Intel distribution RPM files

376 Views

There is a problem with the RPM files in Intel software distributions when running on Fedora 27. In particular, for me, an attempt to install 'Intel Parallel Studio XE Professional Edition for Fortran and C++ Linux 18.0 Update 1' produces an RPM error of "rpm: signature region 62: tag number mismatch il 7 ril 5 dl 658 rdl 16". In the report at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1514190 this error is reported to occur when installing 'intelpython3 2018.1'. So it looks like Intel is distributing RPM files which do not work with the latest RPM file format rules.

Is Intel aware of this problem ? If not how do I report this to Intel so that someone will look at it and correct it for these latest distributions ?
