Comment 1 Kevin Fenzi 2011-11-04 03:35:02 UTC

This looks like an odd yum-utils (yum-builddep) issue. 

From the build logs: 

DEBUG util.py:281:  Executing command: /usr/bin/yum-builddep --installroot /var/lib/mock/dist-6E-epel-build-1173536-185355/root/  '/var/lib/mock/dist-6E-epel-build-1173536-185355/root///builddir/build/SRPMS/qconf-1.4-2.el6.src.rpm'
DEBUG util.py:247:  Getting requirements for qconf-1.4-2.el6.src
DEBUG util.py:247:   --> qt3-devel-3.3.8b-29.el6.x86_64

But the dep is: 

Buildrequires:  qt-devel >= 4.4.0

and so it should really pull in: 
qt-devel.x86_64                       1:4.6.2-17.el6_1.1                        rhel-x86_64-server-6

Comment 3 Ivan Romanov 2011-12-31 18:08:55 UTC

Solved!

I used Buildrequires:  qt-devel >= 4.4.0
Now I use Buildrequires:  qt-devel >= 1:4.4.0

I wonder why in Fedora all ok?

Comment 4 Rex Dieter 2012-01-01 17:41:15 UTC

rhel6 inherited an old fedora qt packaging buglet where qt3-devel included Provides: qt-devel

Comment 5 Ivan Romanov 2012-01-01 17:58:34 UTC

Thanks for your explanation. Now bug can be closed. A don't see "Not a bug" button. Where it?

Comment 6 Rex Dieter 2012-01-01 20:46:09 UTC

status:  resolved->notabug

Comment 7 Rex Dieter 2012-01-01 20:48:55 UTC

Not sure how/why this bug ended up being under yum-utils component... oh well, only it's owner (or reporter?) can change items now it seems (not me anyway).

Comment 8 Kevin Kofler 2012-01-02 01:24:00 UTC

FYI, the recommendation is actually to use:
BuildRequires: qt4-devel >= 4.4.0
The qt4-devel virtual Provides has no Epoch, works even on EL5 where the default was Qt 3 (though you won't find 4.4.0 in the official repositories, because EL5 shipped with 4.2.1) and will keep working in the future when the default will be Qt 5.

One man (I forgot who and where) said me that issue for yum-utils.
I haven't 'resolved' button.

With BuildRequires: qt4-devel >= 4.4.0 I can't rebuild my package for EL6. So ... which BuildRequires i should use for my package? Hm ... Is my way bad? I didn't understand your explanation about it.

Comment 11 Kevin Kofler 2012-01-02 11:02:30 UTC

The bug got (incorrectly) filed against RHEL (it's a problem with the Fedora specfile of qconf and so should be filed against Fedora rawhide, component qconf), which unfortunately means only RH employees can touch it.

> With BuildRequires: qt4-devel >= 4.4.0 I can't rebuild my package for EL6.

Huh? The RHEL6 qt package should also have that Provides…

Comment 12 Ivan Romanov 2012-01-02 11:26:14 UTC

Oh. Really. It was my wrong. I used BuildRequires: qt-devel >= 4.4.0.

Comment 13 Ivan Romanov 2012-01-02 11:47:04 UTC

Rex. Thank you. But how did you get access to my repo??? And what is mean %{?_qt4_version:Requires: qt4%{?_isa} >= %{_qt4_version}}. What for this?

Comment 14 Rex Dieter 2012-01-03 02:26:49 UTC

access => provenpackager

As to what that line does, is it adds an arch'd (%%_isa) minimal runtime dependency for the version of qt(4) it was built against, ie, if built against qt-4.7.4, would end up being
Requires: qt4%{?_isa} > 4.7.4

Comment 15 James Antill 2012-01-16 21:08:29 UTC

Given comment #4 onwards, I think this is NoB, right?
