Description Leonard den Ottolander 2010-11-29 11:04:37 UTC
When building automake16 under mock using the Fedora 14 epel-6-i386 configuration the build fails on a single test not succeeding.

FAIL: lex5.test
 
The same build with the x86_64 configuration succeeds.

automake16-1.6.3-18.el6.1.src.rpm

Comment 2 Karsten Hopp 2010-11-29 13:31:38 UTC
I remember that the lex tests fail when you have byacc installed. Make sure that it doesn't get pulled into the buildroot by another package.

Comment 3 Leonard den Ottolander 2010-11-29 14:07:21 UTC
byacc is not installed in the mock build root. And even if it were, how is this not a bug?

Comment 4 Leonard den Ottolander 2010-11-29 15:02:24 UTC
As I am building RHEL6 from source on 6beta and apply updates to the mock root using a local [updates] repo added to the epel-6 configs the build roots are in constant flux. On top of that I rebuild glib2-2.22.5-5.el6 with the freshly built gcc-4.4.4-13.el6, replacing the original rpms I built with the beta compiler, so I can no longer reconstruct that build root as it was. In the current build root I can not reproduce this issue.

In the future I will make sure to rpm -qa the build root when I encounter such issues, and will try to make sure to keep around all rpms. Just close as NOTABUG and sorry for the confusion.
