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 Christopher Meng 2015-02-26 08:35:34 UTC 
Building roxterm which requires po4a, failed at dependency issue in buildroot:

DEBUG util.py:366:  Getting requirements for roxterm-2.9.5-1.el7.src
DEBUG util.py:366:   --> dbus-glib-devel-0.100-7.el7.ppc64

DEBUG util.py:366:  Error: Package: po4a-0.45-3.el7.noarch (build)
DEBUG util.py:366:             Requires: perl(Locale::gettext) >= 1.01
DEBUG util.py:366:   You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
DEBUG util.py:366:   You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Then we discussed this and found ppc64 doesn't include perl-gettext, I hope this can be fixed since po4a is required by many other packages.

Thanks.

Comment 7 Yaakov Selkowitz 2015-12-01 03:13:56 UTC 
Both perl-gettext and perl-Text-WrapI18N are missing on aarch64, leading to the same issue when bootstrapping EPEL 7 there.
Comment 12 Yaakov Selkowitz 2016-11-04 19:34:11 UTC 
Shipped in RHELSA 7.3 for aarch64.  Leaving open for ppc64*.
Comment 13 Lubos Kocman 2017-02-03 13:52:09 UTC 
I'm giving this a devel_ack+ however, I'm bit afraid of what Peter said, if we'll hit missing dependencies on either aarch or ppc, we'll close this as won't fix

Hi , but #c12 says aarch64 is already fixed just left ppc64*.
Also, maybe anyone can suggest a better solution for po4a commit [1] ? 
What about ? 

%if 0%{?rhel} == 7 
# Until got perl-gettext on epel7-ppc64*
%ifnarch {%power64} 
Requires: perl(Locale::gettext) >= 1.01
%endif
%endif

%if 0%{?rhel} != 7
# Optional, but package is quite useless without
Requires: perl(Locale::gettext) >= 1.01
%endif

Comment 26 Sergio Basto 2017-05-31 11:11:00 UTC 
FYI , we have po4a to fix as next step [1] , have you built also po4a on ppc64/ppc64le ? and on aarch64 ?
