Description Gerd Hoffmann 2007-06-04 16:11:42 UTC
Description of problem:
Can't build driver update model packages

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
redhat-rpm-config-8.0.45-17.0.1.el5

How reproducible:
Try building the attached source rpm.
brew build --scratch dist-5E xenpv-3.1_15040-0.src.rpm

Actual results:
Build fails, complaining about build dependencies not being satisfied.

Expected results:
Build works.

Additional info:
Local build fails on i386 too, with a slightly different error message.
Local build on x86_64 works (this is how the source rpm was created).

local build on i386:

error: Failed build dependencies:

kernel-devel-i686 = 2.6.18-20.el5.kraxel.3
kernel-devel = 2.6.18-20.el5.kraxel.3


Comment 4 Gerd Hoffmann 2007-07-04 10:18:45 UTC
local build using mock fails too, due to the same strange dependency
("kernel-devel-%{_target_cpu} = package" instead of "kernel-devel-%{_target_cpu}
= kernelversion"), looks like mock is the culpit here.

Comment 5 Gerd Hoffmann 2007-07-10 10:46:40 UTC
Uhm, mock fails to resolve build dependencies due to some trickery in
/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/macros which works only with kernel-devel being installed. 
kernel-devel isn't part of the buildsys-build build dependencies -> Oops.

Comment 7 Jon Masters 2007-08-20 07:16:08 UTC
Closing as this is not actually a bug in the driver update program, but a "bug"
in ensuring the right packages are installed and that the build is for the
appropriate target (i686 not i386).

Jon.


Comment 8 Gerd Hoffmann 2007-08-20 08:17:46 UTC
Having kernel-devel installed works for local builds.
As explained in comment #5 it doesn't work with mock and thus also fails for
brew/koji builds -> reopening bug.

Obvious trivial fix would be to add a "Requires: kernel-devel" to the
buildsys-build package.  But that has the drawback to pull in the kernel-devel
package for each and every package build.


Comment 9 Jon Masters 2007-08-24 02:37:57 UTC
Er...it doesn't fail for brew builds because we do them all the time! Hmmm...I'm
wondering what's up here.

Jon.
