A patch to change the buildsystem from autotools to cmake none

Description Tomas Heinrich 2013-12-09 12:56:33 UTC
Description of problem:
The latest update of librabbitmq has a wrong .pc file. The 'Requires.private' and 'Libs.private' sections contain unsubstituted variables, causing any package that depends on librabbitmq to fail to compile.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
librabbitmq-devel-0.4.1-1.fc20

Steps to Reproduce:
$ cat /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/librabbitmq.pc
or
try to compile something which has librabbitmq as a dependency.

Additional info:

Comment 1 Remi Collet 2013-12-09 13:24:30 UTC
Reported upstream https://github.com/alanxz/rabbitmq-c/issues/154

Is deleting those lines enough as a temporary workaround ?
(waiting for upstream feedback).

Comment 2 Tomas Heinrich 2013-12-09 13:55:33 UTC
After commenting out those two, the compilation finishes correctly. Not sure yet whether there's something critical missing from the .pc file in this case.

Comment 3 Tomas Heinrich 2013-12-09 14:05:27 UTC
Here's the upstream commit that changed the .pc file:

    CMake: correct generation of librabbitmq.pc
    Fix CMake code that substitutes librabbitmq.pc to be correct.

It only touches CMakeLists.txt, not configure.ac. The specfile only calls autoreconf and configure in %build, so this might be the problem.

A patch to change the buildsystem from autotools to cmake

Here's a patch to use cmake instead of autotools. This should fix the issue and be a good change in general as the upstream seems to prefer cmake.

The spec file was adjusted to work with cmake and there are also couple of minor changes.

cmake handles RPATH during install and the calls to 'sed' to get rid of it won't be necessary. Though I still don't understand why calling 'autoreconf' was needed.

Comment 5 Remi Collet 2014-01-02 07:06:45 UTC
I prefer to not use cmake for now (mostly because in don't work in EPEL).

autoconf stuff is now fixed upstream
