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.

Description Karel Srot 2018-10-11 13:04:26 UTC 
Description of problem:

I had find out that having variable DISTRO set in the environment would break realmd rebuild.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
realmd-0.16.1-11.el7.src.rpm

How reproducible:
# export DISTRO=foo
# rpmbuild --rebuild realmd-0.16.1-11.el7.src.rpm
...
...
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./service/realmd-foo.conf /root/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/realmd-0.16.1-11.el7.x86_64/usr/lib64/realmd/realmd-distro.conf
/usr/bin/install: cannot stat './service/realmd-foo.conf': No such file or directory
make[3]: *** [install-service] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/rpmbuild/BUILD/realmd-0.16.1'
make[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/rpmbuild/BUILD/realmd-0.16.1'
make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/rpmbuild/BUILD/realmd-0.16.1'
make: *** [install] Error 2
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.yGUro6 (%install)

I do not know what is the exact purpose of this variable in the MAKEFILE so probably the result is expected. I did identify this bug accidentally due to a conflict with our test environment that exports this variable.
Comment 1 Sumit Bose 2018-10-11 14:59:07 UTC 
This is an interaction with the configure script which uses DISTRO as a variable, too:

# Distro Detection

AC_ARG_WITH([distro],
            [AS_HELP_STRING([--with-distro],
                            [Configure for a specific distribution (eg: redhat)]
                           )],
            [DISTRO=$withval])

if test -z $DISTRO; then
    AC_CHECK_FILE(/etc/redhat-release, [DISTRO="redhat"])
    AC_CHECK_FILE(/etc/debian_version, [DISTRO="debian"])
    AC_CHECK_FILE(/etc/SuSE-release, [DISTRO="suse"])

    # Not customized for these yet
    dnl AC_CHECK_FILE(/etc/gentoo-release, [DISTRO="gentoo"])
    dnl AC_CHECK_FILE(/etc/slackware-version, [DISTRO="slackware"])

fi

if test -z $DISTRO; then
    AC_MSG_ERROR([Couldn't detect the distro to configure for. Specify one with --with-distro])
fi

AC_SUBST(DISTRO)


So if DISTRO is set and --with-distro is not used when calling configure the value of DISTRO is used in the Makefile to select the distribution specific defaults.
