php cannot compile without /usr/lib/libxml2.la because it greps it when building modules, etc. This cannot be seen without a completely distilled environment. My recommendation is to just package /usr/lib/libxml2.la with libxml2-devel. This in %files already does this: %{_libdir}/*a Just need to take away the "rm -f" completely. w.r.t. #2. No this is a policy decision, we won't packages .la anymore. Daniel Nalin's suggestion is the right one. Now that /usr/lib/libxml2.la is gone, all packages that currently contain libtool archives themselves that include references to (the now-missing) libxml2.la need to be rebuilt (and potentially remove/omit their .la files as well). If it wasn't clear from my comment #3, it appears that xmlsec1 simply needs to be rebuilt. Though this bug is marked against -devel, it appears that it should be against fc4, since xmlsec1-1.2.7-4 is the version from fc4. I just confirmed a rebuild is successful and fixes the problem (as originally reported). Future xmlsec1 builds (probably targeted at -devel/fc5) probably ought to not include libtool archives (/usr/lib/lib*.la) or static libs (/usr/lib/lib*.a) either, but that's a separate issue. FYI, see bug #171410: "remove *.la/*.a files" Okay the extra .la should have been removed some time ago, but I forgot. It should be fixed in rawhide, with the upcoming 1.2.9-7, Daniel |
