Description Yaakov Selkowitz 2015-12-10 09:14:08 UTC
The build of netcdf-fortran on the new aarch64 and ppc64le architectures was fixed in Fedora after epel7 branched.  Please merge from at least 1b3d4df and update in order to fix the epel7 builds as well.

Comment 1 Peter Robinson 2015-12-10 09:20:14 UTC
it builds just fine on ppc64le, are you sure?

It certainly does not on aarch64, and the commit in question (which was yours) indicates that it is for both arches.

In any case, since it somehow managed to build on ppc64le but not aarch64, adjusting the BZ accordingly.

are you sure that's correct, the fix I put in (copying the config.* files) has been mitigated with the addition of it happening as part of the %configure macro so actually is now obsolete as of 7.1 so I actually believe aarch64 is OK too.

It has not mitigated because %configure only replaces config.* under the directory from which it is called, and netcdf-fortran uses a VPATH build.  The bundled config.sub does include powerpc64le, but not aarch64, and for that reason a local build on the latter fails and updating config.* fixes it.
