Description Peter Robinson 2013-05-18 13:07:17 UTC

It looks like quite a straight forward fix but i don't really know tex/perl

Comment 1 Rex Dieter 2013-08-01 17:57:57 UTC

Ditto failure on f20 too, seen today trying to fix broken deps.  will probably have to make the makefile/perl-scripts more verbose to see exactly what's going on there.

Comment 2 Paulo Andrade 2013-08-01 20:24:04 UTC

I think it is required to debug what is going on by executing
perl with the proper arguments in the armv7hl build chroot.
That is, somewhat like:

---%<---
$ pwd
/some/where/rpmbuild/BUILD/Singular-3-1-5/doc

$ perl  ./doc2tex.pl -docdir ./d2t_singular -Singular /bin/true -verbose 1  -make make -exdir ./examples  -o general.tex general.doc
---%<---

and from there add debug options to the perl command line,
run in the perl -d "debugger", possibly add some print
statements to doc2tex.pl to binsearch what is going wrong.


Sorry for not following closely fedora armv7hl now, but
if you could give me some link to a qemu image I can try
to debug it. A chroot tarball may be enough, I should be
able to chroot to it in some old qemu images of when I
did port Mandriva to armv7hl (but it is an almost 2 year
old port).

Comment 3 Rex Dieter 2014-03-10 15:31:40 UTC

adding arm tracker for the perl/tex borkage.
