Description Alec Voropay 1999-11-20 21:20:52 UTC 
I can not build bind-8.8.2_P5-1.src.rpm on RedHat 5.2 i386
(gcc 2.7.2.3, kernel 2.2.13) platform.

make[2]: Entering directory
 `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/bind-8.2.2_P5/src/bin/nslookup'

Lot of link errors like this :

xxx.o: In function `yyy_yyy':
xxx.o(.text+0x56f): undefined reference to `__p_class'

make[1]: *** [nslookup] Error 2

The bind-8.2.2_P3-0.5.2.i386 are buit OK.

Could you make RawHide's bind-8.2.2_P5 more
platform-independent ?
Comment 1 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 1999-11-21 11:37:59 UTC 
Remove the glibc 2.1 patches from the .spec file and it will most probably work.
Raw Hide RPMs will generally compile and work on Raw Hide - some patches
conflict with old releases.
Comment 2 Alec Voropay 1999-11-21 18:14:59 UTC 
I removed glibc2.1 patch from bind.spec and got the same error. :-(

As a result, I compiled bind-8.2.2_P5 (on my RedHat 5.2 i386) from
pure sources (from ftp://ftp.isc.org) WITHOUT any RedHat's patches
and got fully working bind...

 I have not RedHat 6.1 (glibc2.1 based) now, but I expect, pure
sources will work. Please, check you bind's pathes.
Comment 3 Alec Voropay 1999-11-21 19:59:59 UTC 
YES! I found it!

rawhide/SRPMS/SRPMS/bind-8.2.2_P5-1.src.rpm

See:
SPECS/bind.spec:78  substitution of $RPM_OPT_FLAGS
SOURCES/bind-8.1.2-rh.patch:5 $RPM_OPT_FLAGS

As a result, during compilaion (rpm -bc) on my system :
$RPM_OPT_FLAGS = '-O2 -fno-strenght-reduce'

But pure bind's sources are compiled with options : '-O -g' .

I do not know why, but 'gcc -O2 -fno-strenght-reduce'
on RedHat 5.2 i386 compiles bind incorrectly.
At the same time 'gcc -O -g' works fine.

Could you change gcc's options in future bind-8.2.2_P2-2 ?
