> Latest crash version in fedora is 4.0.9-2.fc12. That version fails to start on > F14 kernels: Yeah, it's been due for an upgrade for some time now. But given that Fedora kernels may always change kernel versions "tomorrow", it's never guaranteed to work, and the upstream version is always preferable regardless. > As a side note, the crash SRPM on his page should probably also have > BuildRequires for flex and bison -- I needed both in order for the build to > work. They are only required for the sial.so extension module to build, and for that reason, it was deemed preferable to just fail the individual module build with the bison/flex error message as opposed to forcing everybody else to have those packages installed, which the vast majority of crash users have zero interest in. + cp extensions/sial.so /root/upstream/BUILDROOT/crash-5.0.4-0.x86_64/usr/lib64/crash/extensions cp: cannot stat `extensions/sial.so': No such file or directory error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.ubJZfY (%install) However, I see that the "cp" command should be conditional... Thanks Jeff, Dave Upstream crash version 5.0.6 is available in the Fedora Rawhide devel branch: build: dist-f14 crash-5.0.6-2.fc14 http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=184746 This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 14 development cycle. Changing version to '14'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
