Forgot to note that this problem didn't exist last week. Seth -- is this related to the reinstall on extras64? we reinstalled onto rhel4. rpm -q rpm-build rpm-build-4.3.3-13_nonptl is that one too old? It is too old for specfiles taking advantage of rpm >= 4.4 only features, which are ok per se for packages targeting >= F[CE]4. IMO the long term fix should be to invoke all rpmbuild operations, including the initial "make srpm", in the environment to which the package is targeted at. But implementing that will probably take a bit of time and effort so it could be a good idea to look for a workaround, for example by installing a recent version of rpmbuild for these purposes in the master server or upgrading its system one. I can build the fc4 rpm for rhel4 and see how much other shit breaks. Anyone else already have one? ATrpms uses rpm 4.4 with RHEL4 since April 2005, e.g. a year now, and nothing broke, so it should be safe. But why use non-FC hosts for FC related builds at all? Wouldn't it make sense to have Fedora builds self-hosted? Speaking from the marketing POV, not technically. Technically you could probably build in chroots on an Ubuntu host as well ;) Try it again: rpm -q rpm-build rpm-build-4.4.1-21.centos4 I think that version should cut the proverbial mustard. Thanks to Paul for the hint about killing the fc4-specific selinux patch If it works - please close the bug. Yep, it worked. |
