Comment 2 Ondrej Vasik 2010-12-10 09:35:58 UTC
Thanks for report. This "Macro % has illegal name (%define)" comes from rpm, which is probably newer than the one from RHEL-6 - of course, %global macro should be used there, but the real problem is in perl change - see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=661697 for details. As linuxdoc-tools uses "eval `perl '-V:installvendorlib'`" to find out perl vendor lib - which was /usr/share/perl5 in the time of last linuxdoc-tools build for RHEL-6 - this is a bit fragile to perl changes. Now the installvendorlib was changed to /usr/share/perl5/vendor_lib/ - and as the filelists contain the old perl vendorlib path, mock rebuild just fails. Fix is easy ... to use the same directory in build and in the filelists. Probably by some global macro.

Comment 3 Levente Farkas 2010-12-23 13:27:14 UTC
solution is the same as in #661770

Comment 4 Suzanne Logcher 2011-02-15 21:46:16 UTC
This issue was proposed for RHEL 6.1 FasTrack but did not get resolved in time.
It has been moved to RHEL 6.2 FasTrack.

(In reply to comment #3)

I'm not sure, but I think this one goes a bit deeper. doc/Makedoc.sh creates $TMPDIR/linuxdoc with incorrect paths and that breaks the build with

Install Perl-related files in the Perl vendor directory.
