Description Máirín Duffy 2009-05-20 14:37:41 UTC

Description of problem:

i'm building the latest srpm of inkscape for f10 so i can try it out on my laptop :)

however i noticed that it doesn't require gcc-c++ or make to build so it just failed until i figured i had to install those... it seems like the spec should require these...

See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Exceptions_2
gcc-c++ and make are part of the minimal build environment
you can get to there with  yum groupinstall buildsys-build

Still not using F11? :)

Nope, they're part of the build group. Preferred way to build packages on your machine is to use mock. Alternatively, you may want to install the build group so that you can sure there's nothing missing that's not BuildRequired. Here's how you list it:
