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.

When building rhythmbox-2.99.1-4.srpm with lirc-devel install will render two unpackaged files:

error: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
   /usr/lib64/rhythmbox/plugins/rblirc/librblirc.so
   /usr/lib64/rhythmbox/plugins/rblirc/rblirc.plugin

The absence of lirc-devel will result in a successful build (the above files will not be created in that case).

To avoid the lirc plugin from being built in an environment where lirc-devel is installed add --enable-lirc=no to the configure step in the SPEC file. This makes explicit what is now implicit, i.e. that the lirc plugin is not being built.

When the intention is to build with the lirc plugin a BuildRequires lirc-devel should be added to the SPEC file. Adding --enable-lirc to the configure step is not required as configure will pick up the installed lirc-devel.

RPM files are made to be built in a stable and clean environment, so this really isn't a problem for building RHEL packages.
