Reassign to Chris as he's IC the build system. You are correct, requiring that the kernel package be installed for the build is not necessary. Future releases will not contain that requirement. Unfortunately the way our build system works we cannot have BuildRequires inside of if statements (the if statements get ignored). |

But even that requirement isn't quite right - it should depend on the value of buildhugemem, but doesn't. In fact, I think these three BuildRequires are all wrong - you should be able to be running any kernel at all (even one not installed via RPM), as long as you have the correct kernel-*devel RPMS installed. ... BuildRequires: kernel = %{kernel_version} BuildRequires: kernel-smp = %{kernel_version} BuildRequires: kernel-hugemem = %{kernel_version} ... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cman-kernel-2.6.9-36.0 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: See above, just try to rebuild the package without any of the three kernel RPMs installed.
