No idea ;-) but thanks for catching this. :) Actually it seems the buildrequires for generating docs are not needed in practice AFAICT since the source tarball comes with pre-generated html files anyway. I removed the unneeded doc buildrequires in cvs now, so it should get fixed the next time darcs gets built. are there any build /root logs available ? be interesting to see. I find it surprising that the buildsystem is ignoring a missing BuildRequires and going ahead with the build anyway. I believe that the yum-modified version of "mach" used in the current build system ignores "yum install" failures and effectively ignores BuildRequires, which fail to install [for various reasons]. |

Actual Results: error: Failed build dependencies: latex2html is needed by darcs-1.0.3-2.el4.kb.i386 Additional info: lates2html seems to be a FC4 package ( its there at : http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/ ) - but does not exist on FC3 ( http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/ ). How did it get build for the FC3 Extras ?
