FWIW, the autoconf problem was fixed upstream in version 0.9 https://github.com/bfabiszewski/libmobi/commit/542600db6a1614773f14cccb78c6d6a06f537408 The current upstream version is 0.11 This package has changed maintainer in Fedora. Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component. Automation has figured out the package is retired in rawhide. If you like it to be unretired, please open a ticket at https://pagure.io/releng/new_issue?template=package_unretirement |
Autoconf 2.72 seems to be under preparation upstream, I therefore started to build dependent components to verify that they can be built once it lands in Fedora. Your component fails to build with the new version of autoconf, due to the following error: --- checking for zlib.h... yes ./configure: line 14589: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' ./configure: line 14589: ` ''' --- The error is due to under-quoting of AS_IF parameters in configure.ac. The proposed patch is the following: --- diff -U5 -r libmobi-0.6.old/configure.ac libmobi-0.6/configure.ac --- libmobi-0.6.old/configure.ac 2022-11-24 11:15:43.608653143 +0100 +++ libmobi-0.6/configure.ac 2022-11-24 11:16:03.456652281 +0100 @@ -322,13 +322,13 @@ AC_SUBST(MINIZ_CFLAGS) # Check for md5 or md5sum program, needed for tests AC_ARG_VAR([MD5PROG], [md5 hashing program executable]) -AS_IF([test "x$MD5PROG" = "x"], AC_CHECK_PROG([MD5PROG], [md5sum], [md5sum -t]), []) -AS_IF([test "x$MD5PROG" = "x"], AC_CHECK_PROG([MD5PROG], [md5], [md5 -r]), []) -AS_IF([test "x$MD5PROG" = "x"], AC_MSG_WARN([md5 hashing program not found, some tests will be skipped]), []) +AS_IF([test "x$MD5PROG" = "x"], [AC_CHECK_PROG([MD5PROG], [md5sum], [md5sum -t])], []) +AS_IF([test "x$MD5PROG" = "x"], [AC_CHECK_PROG([MD5PROG], [md5], [md5 -r])], []) +AS_IF([test "x$MD5PROG" = "x"], [AC_MSG_WARN([md5 hashing program not found, some tests will be skipped])], []) # List test files CR=$'\n' for f in tests/samples/*.{mobi,fail} do --- Please have a look and get the problem fixed upstream.
