Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2005-02-21 15:20:04 UTC

I believe this needs to be fixed in /usr/lib/rpm/find-debuginfo.sh, because
I guess gcc is not the only package that has absolute symlinks in its build dir
and even if it is a relative symlink to otherwise unreferenced file, *-debuginfo
package might contain just the symlink and not what it actually points to.

I think there are 2 possible solutions, one is replace -pd0m with -pd0mL
in find-debuginfo.sh (and optionally run hardlink on the
${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/usr/src/debug tree to kill duplicates), or after copying
the files keep cycling through the symlinks in that tree and for absolute ones
to $RPM_BUILD_ROOT replace them with symlinks into /usr/src/debug/* and copy
whatever they point to into the tree as well.

Comment 2 Jeff Johnson 2006-02-12 15:05:49 UTC

I've added the L option to tpm cvs, should be in rpm-4.4.5-0.10 when built.

The real problem with debuginfo is the rewrite of paths in elf headers without
reallocating the header, thereby preventing rpmbuild from producing -debuginfo
packages when configured on build paths shorter than /usr/src/debug. The eventual
fix for that will be to stop producing -debuginfo packages with rpmbuild.
