1018147 – qt: %{_kde4_iconsdir} in spec file not expanded

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Florian Weimer 2013-10-11 10:44:25 UTC

_kde4_iconsdir is defined in kde-filesystem.  It's apparently not installed in the build root, so the macro not expanded:

$ rpm -qp --scripts phonon-backend-gstreamer-4.6.2-26.el6_4.x86_64.rpm 
postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
touch --no-create %{_kde4_iconsdir}/hicolor &> /dev/null ||:
postuninstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
if [ $1 -eq 0 ] ; then
  touch --no-create %{_kde4_iconsdir}/hicolor &> /dev/null ||:
  gtk-update-icon-cache %{_kde4_iconsdir}/hicolor &> /dev/null ||:
fi
posttrans scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
gtk-update-icon-cache %{_kde4_iconsdir}/hicolor &> /dev/null ||:

BuildRequires: kde-filesystem should fix this, but you should do that only if it doesn't introduce a cyclic build dependency. :-)

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2013-10-13 23:00:39 UTC

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unable to address this
request at this time.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate, in the next release of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

it's no problem to add BR on kde-filesystem. The kde-filesystem only requires filesystem and rpm so there's no cyclic build dependency in this case

Comment 4 Than Ngo 2013-10-29 13:56:55 UTC

it's easy fix, grant devel-ack

Comment 11 Jan Grulich 2016-10-10 08:49:29 UTC

Granting dev_ack.
