Description Lennert Buytenhek 2004-08-03 12:07:39 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510

Description of problem:
config.guess supplied with rpm 4.3.1 automatically sets the vendor to
unknown if the arch is arm*, preventing bootstrapping of Fedora 2 on
the armv5te(b) architectures.

Also, rpm won't install noarch RPMS on darmv5te and armv5teb
architectures by default.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.3.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Hand-build an initial set of packages for the armv5te(b) architecture,
and then try to rpmbuild --rebuild the rpm 4.3.1 source rpm.
    

Actual Results:  Bails out, because /usr/src/unknown instead of
/usr/src/redhat is made by the build+install process.  This happens
because the supplied config.guess forces vendor to be unknown if arch
is arm*, returning armv5te(b)-unknown-linux-gnu instead of
armv5te(b)-redhat-linux-gnu.

Expected Results:  It should have built properly :)

Suggested diff to the spec file.

This patch teaches the spec file to pick up the correct /usr/lib/rpm/arch dir.

Suggested fix, new version.

The little-endian arch is more appropriately named armv5tel.  Update patch to
reflect this.

Update to armv5tel.

Added in rpm-4.4.3-0.24 (when built). I have no way at all of testing however ...
