Any updates on this issue? We don't support cross-compiling via RPM - never have. If you want to do this, you need to create a 32-bit chroot on your x86_64 system and carry out the build in there using the 32-bit toolchain, rpmbuild & libraries. You can use mock to set these chroots up: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Projects/Mock It's part of koji and is used on the build hosts to set up the buildroots used for building packages going through the buildsystem. Alright. I'm a bit confused as to why it took 4 months to answer this bug...but anyway, I really appreciate the detailed reply! I'll check up more on those resources you provided. |
Description of problem: When building SRPM on x86_64, the build fails with the following error: BUILD: FAIL for dmraid-1.0.0.rc14-6_RHEL4_U5.src.rpm BUILDLOG: dmraid-1.0.0.rc14-6_RHEL4_U5.src.rpm-i386-rebuild.log contains full details.

Installed : %> rpm -q dmraid dmraid-1.0.0.rc14-6_RHEL4_U5.i386 %> rpm -q dmraid-devel dmraid-devel-1.0.0.rc14-6_RHEL4_U5.i386 Build for target x86_64 just to check... %> rpmbuild --target x86_64 -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/dmraid.spec -> Builds no problem. But currently x86_64 machines have i386 pkgs installed, and according to the pkg summary, x86_64 machines should be getting the i386 pkgs. So I don't believe the solution should be to build for x86_64 instead of i386. Moving on...building for target i386 %> rpmbuild --target i386 -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/dmraid.spec [SNIP] BUILD: FAIL for dmraid-1.0.0.rc14-6_RHEL4_U5.src.rpm BUILDLOG: dmraid-1.0.0.rc14-6_RHEL4_U5.src.rpm-i386-rebuild.log contains full details.

I imagine it's probably a multilib issue... %> rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/libdmraid.a dmraid-devel-1.0.0.rc14-6_RHEL4_U5.i386 %> eu-readelf -h /usr/lib64/libdmraid.a |grep Class Class: ELF64 [SNIP] Okay, so, as expected, libdmraid.a is built for i386. Things look up though if I install the devel pkg that was built for target x86_64, (i.e. dmraid-devel-1.0.0.rc14-6_RHEL4_U5.x86_64), and run rpmbuild again. The pkg now builds no problem. Wouldn't that mean that we should also be including the x86_64 dmraid-devel pkg with the pkg set for x86_64 archs?? Or is something else going wrong somewhere else?
