And another one of these: syslinux buildreqs nasm, but nasm is not part of the source distribution. If it's in the binary distro it should be in the source too, and if it's not in the binary distro then the problem doubles. And yet another: perl-DBD-Pg requires postgresql-devel, but postgresql is not in the distribution. Thanks for the bug report(s). We are aware of these issues and working on a solution for them. We have pushed -devel packages starting with U2 (I believe). |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031008 Description of problem: Python requires tix to build, but tix is not part of the rhel3 distro. tix, in turn, requires itcl, which is not part of the distro either. Similar problems pop up elsewhere too. ghostscript buildreqs gimp-print-devel. gimp-print in turn buildreqs ghostscript-devel. I'm filing this as one bug rather than opening a separate bug for ghostscript because neither problem is really a programme bug; both are QA issues with packaging and the distribution itself. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpmbuild -bb python 1. rpmbuild -bb ghostscript 1. rpmbuild -bb gimp-print Actual Results: The packages won't build. Expected Results: It should be possible to build and install the packages without having to resort to bootstrapping or importing from other distributions.
