Description Edwin ten Brink 2008-07-30 09:32:21 UTC 
Description of problem:
Rebuilding firefox-3.0.1 package does not yield an installable rpm. Installation
of the freshly created rpm fails with:

# rpm -U firefox-3.0.1-3.fc9.i386.rpm 
error: unpacking of archive failed on file
/usr/lib/firefox-3.0.1/firefox;48902426: cpio: MD5 sum mismatch

No system- or user specific rpmrc was used, source package was unmodified,
except for the release number in the /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/firefox.spec file.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.3.0 20080428 (Red Hat 4.3.0-8)
# rpmbuild --version
RPM version 4.4.2.3
# cpio --version
cpio (GNU cpio) 2.9


How reproducible:
Always.


Steps to Reproduce:
With the downloaded source rpm from
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/SRPMS/firefox-3.0.1-1.fc9.src.rpm

1. # rpm -i firefox-3.0.1-1.fc9.src.rpm
2. # cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
3. // Edit of the release number x in the firefox.spec file.
4. # rpmbuild -ba firefox.spec 
5. # cd ../RPMS/i386
6. # rpm -U firefox-3.0.1-x.fc9.i386.rpm   // x being the release number

  
Actual results:
"error: unpacking of archive failed on file
/usr/lib/firefox-3.0.1/firefox;48902426: cpio: MD5 sum mismatch"

Package was not installed.

The number  in "firefox;48902426: cpio: MD5 sum mismatch" varies each time a
rebuild is attempted, even with the same settings. 


Expected results:
No output but clean install.


Additional info:
none

Weird, I actually can reproduce this. Although the build goes without problems
and the resulting package looks good:

[matej@viklef ~]$ rpm --checksig --nosignature
redhat/RPMS/i386/firefox-3.0.1-1.fc9.i386.rpm 
redhat/RPMS/i386/firefox-3.0.1-1.fc9.i386.rpm: sha1 md5 OK
[matej@viklef ~]$ 

I get the same error message when trying to upgrade
[root@viklef ~]# LANG=C rpm -Uvh --force
/home/matej/redhat/RPMS/i386/firefox*3.0.1-1*

There is interesting stuff here:

[matej@viklef redhat]$ grep ^Warning rpmbuild-log.txt |wc -l
264
[matej@viklef redhat]$ 
[matej@viklef redhat]$ grep ^Warning -C 3 rpmbuild-log.txt |head -n 5

(other 250+ lines are roughly the same, except the filename is different).
