Description Michael Redinger 2003-08-07 13:23:37 UTC
The Taroon gdm-2.4.1.3-5.src.rpm package does not build correctly
on Taroon (everything install):

The error message says that /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libgsf-1.pc is needed.
So this is really two bugs:

- gdm needs libgsf-devel, but this is not included in Taroon (but in Severn)
- there should be a build prereq for libgsf-devel

See also bug #101819

Attaching the rebuild output.

rpmbuild --rebuild gdm-2.4.1.3-5.src.rpm output

Comment 2 Havoc Pennington 2003-08-07 16:55:42 UTC
Taroon isn't intended to be self-hosting; the -devel packages are removed 
to limit ABI support liability (keep customers/ISVs from using libraries 
that we don't want to live with forever).

The buildrequires should be there though.

Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2003-08-20 21:47:01 UTC
Buildrequires is there now
