Description Anton Guda 2012-02-06 13:04:07 UTC

Description of problem:
Build of some packages (dsniff, cproto) is failed due to rpcgen disability to find C preprocessor


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
glibc-2.15-11
filesystem-3-2 <- yes, with usermove feature

How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Take some *.x file, like mount.x from dsniff (or empty file).
2. rpcgen -h mount.x -o mount.h

  
Actual results:
cannot find any C preprocessor (cpp)
rpcgen: C preprocessor failed with exit code 1

Expected results:
As with manualy given path:
rpcgen -h mount.x -o mount.h -Y /usr/bin
:mount.h created, no error


Additional info:
It may be not a glibc, but a filesystem bug, but current fashion is to move all to /usr. :_(

Do you have the cpp package installed?

rpm -q -a | grep cpp

Comment 2 Anton Guda 2012-02-06 17:09:09 UTC

Of course, and rpcgen work if /usr/bin is set manualy.

$ rpm -q cpp
cpp-4.7.0-0.10.bcx.i686

$ rpm -q -a | grep cpp
yaml-cpp-devel-0.2.7-2.bcx.i686
qpid-cpp-server-cluster-0.12-6.2.bcx.i686
commoncpp2-1.8.1-1.bcx.i686
cpp-4.7.0-0.10.bcx.i686
libmcpp-2.7.2-7.bcx.i686
qpid-cpp-server-store-0.12-6.2.bcx.i686
...

$ rpm -V cpp ; echo $?
0

$cpp --version

P.S. bcx - local rebuild suffix. In glibc some locales was added, in gcc - none.

Comment 3 Jeff Law 2012-02-07 18:34:02 UTC

OK, this is related to moving everything into /usr.

Can you confirm the location of a cpp binary in /usr/lib/cpp and/or /usr/bin/cpp?

Thanks,
