Description Thomas Sailer 2011-08-26 09:34:56 UTC

Description of problem:

When trying to build:
http://sailer.fedorapeople.org/octave-optim-1.0.16-2.fc15.src.rpm

I get:
error: the following dependencies where unsatisfied:
   optim needs miscellaneous >= 1.0.11
 optim needs struct >= 1.0.9

Even though:
octave-devel-3.4.2-2.fc17.x86_64
octave-miscellaneous-1.0.11-3.fc17.x86_64
octave-struct-1.0.9-4.fc17.x86_64

are installed.

The octave-optim spec file uses the RPM macro %octave_pkg_build, which expands to:
octave -H -q --no-site-file --eval 'pkg build '\''-verbose'\'' /var/tmp/octave-optim-1.0.16-2.fc17.x86_64 /home/sailer/rpmbuild/BUILD/optim-1.0.16'


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
octave-3.4.2-2.fc17.x86_64
(though this bug is not specific to rawhide, it's reproducible on F15 as well)

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.wget http://sailer.fedorapeople.org/octave-optim-1.0.16-2.fc15.src.rpm
2.rpmbuild --rebuild octave-optim-1.0.16-2.fc15.src.rpm
  
Actual results:
error: the following dependencies where unsatisfied:
   optim needs miscellaneous >= 1.0.11
 optim needs struct >= 1.0.9


Expected results:
successfully built octave-optim binary package

Comment 1 Orion Poplawski 2011-08-29 16:17:06 UTC

Works fine for me with:

octave-3.4.2-2.fc15.i686
octave-devel-3.4.2-2.fc15.i686
octave-miscellaneous-1.0.11-3.fc15.i686
octave-struct-1.0.9-5.fc15.i686

Rawhide scratch build http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3309487 built fine.  F15 build roots might not be up to date at the moment.  Should be once the recent octave updates are pushed to stable which should be soon.

Comment 2 Susi Lehtola 2011-08-29 16:54:37 UTC

I am 99% sure I commented on this issue and closed this yesterday. The problem was that I had accidentally done a buildroot override for octave-3.4.2-1.fc1{5,6} instead of octave-3.4.2-2.fc1{5,6}.

So, even though octave-3.4.2-2.fc16 was already in F16 stable, the buildroot override took preference, and compiling extensions didn't work in 3.4.2-1.

I succcesfully rebuild octave-optim yesterday after correcting the override.

Comment 3 Thomas Sailer 2011-11-28 18:25:03 UTC

Still does not work for me, see

Comment 4 Orion Poplawski 2012-12-22 04:17:29 UTC

I think I've found the problem.  In the pkg build code, install() is called is such a way a to be completely impossible to test the package deps yet it is being requested to do so.  For now I'm patching build() to call install and telling it not check deps.

As I understand it, upstream is looking to do a major rewrite of the pkg functions so hopefully this will get addressed.
