Description Justin Dearing 2013-09-14 17:56:47 UTC
I am building the libpng arpm from rawhide on a highly modified CentOS 6.4 box with autoconf 2.65. rpmbuild -ba fails because  autoconf is not >= 2.68. Therefore the line in the spec should read:

BuildRequires: autoconf >= 2.68

Full error message I get is below:

Executing(%build): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.K3Ireu
+ umask 022
+ cd /home/mono/rpmbuild/BUILD
+ cd libpng-1.6.3
+ autoreconf -vi

Comment 1 Petr Hracek 2013-09-25 12:53:00 UTC
After discussion with our autoconf expert row were changed to:
BuildRequires autoconf >= 2.68

But current version of autoconf in rawhide is 2.69.
