Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 147383
wrong "file not found by glob" error
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:07:06 EST
Description of problem: we can't use files with special wildcard symbols as regular files in %files section of spec-file. I.e. file "test-*.txt" when we try to add to rpm such file we get message: error: File not found by glob: <filename> Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rpm-4.2.3-13 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. get attached test.spec file 2. run rpmbuild -bb test.spec 3. we've got an error Actual results: we've got an error: error: File not found by glob: <filename> Expected results: the rpm must be built succesfully Additional info: I include a simple patch that fixes this bug, but I don't sure that this extra check of myGlobPatternP(argv[0]) is completely unnecessary. So, if this check is needed for rpm correct working, please, find another way to fix error in processing files with wildcard-symbols in it's name. Patch must be appled to the file build/files.c
Created attachment 110745 [details] spec file for testing bug
Created attachment 110746 [details] patch that fixes the bug
Is this at all related to bug #139460 ? Because I'm experiencing the problem mentioned in that bug, but on Redhat Enterprise instead of Fedora.
Fixed in rpm cvs, will be in rpm-4.4.8-0.9 when built. UPSTREAM
