Fixed in 2.3.3-3 Confirmed to be fixed: $ rpm -qp --requires /mnt/redhat/beehive/comps/dist/fc2/python/2.3.3-3/*/*.rpm |grep XFree86 XFree86-devel Thanks for the quick update! |
There are hard coded dependancies on some XFree86 subpackages whi need to be fixed before xorg-x11 can be enabled in the development tree. The following is found in the spec file: BuildPrereq: Mesa-devel tk tix gcc-c++ XFree86-libs glibc-devel Nothing should ever have a Requires, BuildRequires, or BuildPrereq on the XFree86-libs subpackage, because those are runtime libraries, and not development libraries. If python, or something in the python package needs to link to an X library, then the dependancy should be on XFree86-devel, not XFree86-libs. I found the changelog for this: * Mon Nov 11 2002 Mihai Ibanescu <misa@redhat.com> 2.2.2-3.* - Merged patch from Karsten Hopp <karsten@redhat.de> from 2.2.1-17hammer to use %%{_libdir} - Added XFree86-libs as BuildRequires (because of tkinter) Not sure what tkinter needs XFree86-libs for, but that's almost certainly an incorrect BuildRequires. XFree86-libs package is going to be removed from the distribution shortly, so this needs to be changed to XFree86-devel if it is a dependancy needed for development headers or developmental X11 shared library symlinks. I can make the change if you like, as this is somewhat under a time constraint, to get this fixed before the freeze tomorrow. Thanks in advance.
