Running rpmbuild on the compiz source RPM will fail if any KDE or qt development packages (for example, qt-devel) are installed. This is caused by a bug in the compiz configuration script.
To work around this, remove any KDE or qt development packages before attempting to build the compiz package from its source RPM.

If you have no kde/qt devel packages installed, compiz builds fine. This should be added to the release-notes for RHEL 5.2 just to clarify, Cameron: when you say "build compiz", do you mean build the compiz rpm package from its srpm? Yes. The rpm fails to build if the configure script detects certain qt/kde devel packages, but other necessary packages are missing. The configure script does not do a complete job detecting all necessary packages. proposed release note: <quote> Running rpmbuild on the compiz source RPM will fail if any KDE or qt development packages (for example, qt-devel) are installed.

Sounds good to me. thanks Cameron. added to RHEL5.2 release notes updates. Tracking this bug for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 Release Notes. This Release Note is currently located in the Known Issues section. Release note added. If any revisions are required, please set the "requires_release_notes" flag to "?" and edit the "Release Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion, but this component is not scheduled to be updated in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. If you would like this request to be reviewed for the next minor release, ask your support representative to set the next rhel-x.y flag to "?". KDE support has been removed from the Compiz package for RHEL 6 making this irrelevant on continuing basis. There are no plans to update RHEL 5 for this issue. |
