Latest rpm no longer sets the buildarch macro due to issues surrounding getting it correct with multiple sub-packages. I'm working on removing the dependency on that macro. Thanks for the quick fix! I'm rebuilding -doctest and -symbolic on rawhide. |
TL;DR Something is eating `buildarch` before macros.octave gets it. It seems to be set to the actual buildnode hardware rather than "noarch" as my spec files says. - - - - - octave-doctest and octave-symbolic are FTBFS on Rawhide. The Doctest and Symbolic packages both have "BuildArch: noarch" in their specfiles. After some testing, I think something has gone wrong about `octave_tar_suffix`. AFAICT, `octave_tar_suffix` should be set to "any-none" when the package is noarch. In Rawhide, %build is still making `doctest-0.7.0-any-none.tar.gz`, but then we %install dies with: BUILDSTDERR: error: pkg: failed to read package '/builddir/build/BUILD/doctest-0.7.0/build/doctest-0.7.0-armv7hl-redhat-linux-gnu-api-v53.tar.gz': Note the "armv7hl-redhat-linux-gnu-api-v53" which is `octave_tar_suffix` but it should've been "any-none" because in macros.octave: if (rpm.expand("%{?buildarch}") ~= "noarch") then rpm.define("octave_tar_suffix %{octave_host}-%{octave_api}") else rpm.define("octave_tar_suffix any-none") end - - - - - Here's a recent scratch with a bit of extra debugging which shows the above behaviour: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/5668/36645668/build.log Note: if I change my package, deleting "BuildArch: noarch", the "doctest-0.7.0-any-none.tar.gz" is still created so that is no solution.
