Description Moritz Baumann 2007-02-08 10:28:50 UTC
Description of problem:
Anaconda after yum upgrade not rebuildable anymore.
can be rebuild on a fresh installed FC6.
after a yum -y upgrade
rpmbuild --rebuild anaconda-11.1.1.3-1.src.rpm
fails.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
11.1.1.3.-1

How reproducible:
always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpmdev-setuptree
2. cd rpmbuild/SRPMS
3. yumdownloader -e core-source --source anaconda
4. rpmbuild --rebuild anaconda-11.1.1.3-1.src.rpm
5. <fix missing dependencies for rpmbuild>
6. rpmbuild --rebuild anaconda-11.1.1.3-1.src.rpm


  
Actual results:
...

isys.c:974: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
isys.c:974: error: for each function it appears in.)


Expected results:
the actual files in 
rpmbuild/RPMS/i386

Additional info:
# cd /usr/include
# grep -R START_ARRAY *
linux/raid/md_u.h:/*  0x31 was START_ARRAY  */
linux/raid/md_u.h:#define RESTART_ARRAY_RW      _IO (MD_MAJOR, 0x34)
seems the header files changed.

After changing rpmbuild/BUILD/isys/isysc.c (line 974)
START_ARRAY to RUN_ARRAY and doing a "make in that dir I get:
cc -c -O2 -g -pipe -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -Wall -Werror

Comment 1 David Cantrell 2007-02-08 15:23:55 UTC
The version of anaconda that shipped with FC-6 will build with the kernel that
shipped with FC-6.  The ones that have landed in FC-6 updates have changed the
header files, so the FC-6 anaconda won't rebuild correctly.

This has been fixed in anaconda CVS and is available in the rawhide anaconda.

Marking this as NOTABUG because we don't guarantee that the anaconda in release
versions will continue to build with all the updates.  If you want to work on
anaconda source trees, pull from CVS or get the source RPMS from rawhide.
