Description of problem: festival is not available for the x86_64 architecture, the i386 build does run fine after satisfying 32-bit libtermcap dependency Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.4.2-22
Does a native 64-bit build (if built by hand) work?
Created attachment 102504 [details] build log Negative, see the attached log file with the output of rpm -bb with the original specfile rpm -bb with ExclusiveArch removed from the specfile manual build attempt
It is also not being built on powerpc and ppc64 with the current rawhide tree. URLs to look at confirming this: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/ppc64/Fedora/RPMS/ gnome-speech has a dependency on festival, so this also means that gnome-speech isn't available on ppc/ppc64
I believe festival is an artificial dependency in gnome-speech. Unless festival can be made to build on other archs, we should probably back out that artificial dep.
gnome-speech doesn't really require festival to work. It is a set of drivers (you could use it with a hardware speech card for instance), but using it with festival is the common case. The dependency is i386 only.
I suppose a %ifarch conditional Requires would work?
It has that already. (-: I don't think that's what this bug is about, though.
No, the bug's about getting festival built elsewhere. Can we do that? Because gnome-speech is useless w/o it :)
gnome-speech-0.3.5-1.x86_64 seems to work with festival-1.4.2-25.i386 here.
I am closing this bug as festival-1.4.2-25.i386.rpm is now included in x86_64 rawhide.
There is still the open question whether festival can be built natively on x86_64 and others. According to the project group in Edinbourgh it is supposed to be portable. Not everything can be built against the i386 package. Could someone reopen this?
