Description Tom "spot" Callaway 2001-11-07 21:47:27 UTC

Description of Problem:

control-center SRPM is not self-hosting

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

control-center-1.4.0.1-18

How Reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm --rebuild control-center-1.4.0.1-18.src.rpm (WITHOUT a
control-center rpm installed)

Actual Results:

dies, looking for capplet.pc

Expected Results:

Rebuilds RPM.

Additional Information:
	
Installing an older control-center rpm allows it to build, but SRPM should
be self-hosting.

Comment 1 Havoc Pennington 2002-02-11 21:22:53 UTC

The clean way to fix this is to move control-center-single out of the
control-center package and into a separate SRPM, then use dependencies to bind
those RPMs together tightly. 

The big pain-in-the-butt way is to apply a huge configure/makefile patch to
control-center-single tarball to link against the uninstalled libcapplet.

After discussion, decided to let this problem disappear in the GNOME 2 migration
when that happens.
