It's not specific to nohint_oldconfig in any way, regular oldconfig will break too. In order to unset variables, you what to use this # CONFIG_FOO is not defined Yes, just like that - with whole "is not defined" string. When I change it to "#CONFIG_FOO is not set" it works as expected. I think this bug can be closed as not being a bug at all. Thanks for the quick response, I can finally go to bed now :) |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050513 Fedora/1.0.4-1.3.1 Firefox/1.0.4 Description of problem: I'm trying to rebuild the kernel RPM for a non-SMP system, with DEBUG_SPINLOCK en REGPARM disabled. I installed the source RPM, edited the kernel configuration and undefined the two options. However, a kernel recompile fails, because nonint_oldconfig barfs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.11.-1.35_FC3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install kernel source RPM 2. edit the kernel configuration (delete an option which is currently set to "y") 3. rpmbuild -bb kernel-2.6.spec Actual Results: kernel rebuild failed Expected Results: kernel rebuild should have succeeded. Additional info: Inside the failed build tree (/usr/src/redhat/BUILD) I reran a "make nonint_oldconfig", and I saw it succeed. Wondering what happened I copied my original edited kernelconfig to .config, reran "make nonint_oldconfig" and it failed as expected. It seems the first time it checks against the kernel config the machine is running, the second time against the modified kernel config. The error from rpmbuild is: + for i in '*.config' + mv kernel-2.6.11-i686.config .config ++ head -1 .config ++ cut -b 3- + Arch=i386 + make ARCH=i386 nonint_oldconfig CONFIG_REGPARM CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK make[1]: *** [nonint_oldconfig] Error 2 make: *** [nonint_oldconfig] Error 2 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.88168 (%prep) RPM build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.88168 (%prep) If I enter the buildtree: # cp /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/kernel-2.6.11-i686.config .config cp: overwrite `.config'? y # make ARCH=i386 nonint_oldconfig > /dev/null CONFIG_REGPARM CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK make[1]: *** [nonint_oldconfig] Error 2 make: *** [nonint_oldconfig] Error 2 # make ARCH=i386 nonint_oldconfig > /dev/null # The second time no errors are reported. I don't know how to fix this...
