From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050416 Fedora/1.0.3-2 Firefox/1.0.3 Description of problem: FontForge ( http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/ ) claims it needs the byte code interpreter enabled. If when building the Fedora spec file with that support enabled, a virtual provides could be added - then a fontforge rpm could require the virtual provides, and thus yum/apt/whatever would not accidentally break fontforge during a routine update when a bugfix is pushed (as the dependency resolution should then prevent the custom built freetype from being replaced) %if ! %{without_bytecode_interpreter} Provides: %{name}-bytecode %endif (or something like that) should do it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): freetype-2.1.9-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Not applicable Actual Results: Not Applicable Expected Results: Not Applicable Additional info:
Built. * Wed Mar 25 2009 Behdad Esfahbod <besfahbo> 2.3.9-2 - Add Provides: freetype-bytecode and freetype-subpixel if built with those options. - Resolves: #155210
FYI, I also added these Provides to freetype-freeworld-2.3.9-2.fc11 in RPM Fusion.
