Test program returns -1 on i686. I suspect strcmp guarantees only sign, not value, for compare. NEEDINFO so's I don't have to stare at this bug. man 3 strcmp confirms that assertion patch checked in on HEAD after testing on ppc chroot >>> rpm.labelCompare(('1', '1','2'), ('1', '1', '3')) -1 >>> rpm.labelCompare(('1', '1','2'), ('1', '1', '1')) 1 >>> rpm.labelCompare(('1', '1','1'), ('1', '1', '1')) 0 Added to rpm-4_3 and rpm-4_2 branches. |
Description of problem: Whilst testing out rpm.labelCompare I noticed I was getting values other than 1,-1,0. Tested on my x86 rawhide box and acted as expected. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rpm-4.3-0.7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. I wrote a small c program #include <stdio.h> #include <rpm/rpmlib.h> int main() { int rc; rc = rpmvercmp("1", "2"); printf("%d\n", rc); return rc; } 2. compile 3. run Actual results: [pauln@imac tmp]$ ./testrpmcmp -16782168 Expected results: -1 Additional info: [pauln@imac tmp]$ rpm -q rpm rpm-4.3-0.7 [pauln@imac tmp]$ uname -a Linux imac.eridu 2.4.22-2f #1 Sun Nov 9 16:49:49 EST 2003 ppc ppc ppc GNU/Linux Same occurs obviously using python: >>> rpm.labelCompare(('1', '1','2'), ('1', '1', '3')) -16777120 This is a ydl 3 -> rawhide machine I haven't been able to get confirmation.
