During a testbuild of subversion-1.1.1-2.1 in mock, the rebuild process stops with the following error: buildcheck: checking installation... buildcheck: autoconf version 2.59 (ok) buildcheck: autoheader version 2.59 (ok) ./build/buildcheck.sh: line 91: which: command not found ./build/buildcheck.sh: line 94: which: command not found buildcheck: libtool not found. You need libtool version 1.4 or newer installed error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.69515 (%build) Adding which to the BuildRequires: list fixes this problem.
Thanks for the report. This issue has been fixed in Raw Hide, and will be fixed in any future update to the subversion package subsequent to U2.
This problem is resolved in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Red Hat does not currently plan to provide a resolution for this in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux update for currently deployed systems. With the goal of minimizing risk of change for deployed systems, and in response to customer and partner requirements, Red Hat takes a conservative approach when evaluating changes for inclusion in maintenance updates for currently deployed products. The primary objectives of update releases are to enable new hardware platform support and to resolve critical defects.
