Description Roozbeh Pournader 2005-09-11 16:51:56 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050909 Fedora/1.0.6-1.2.fc3 Firefox/1.0.6

Description of problem:
fetchmail-6.2.5-7.fc4.1.src.rpm has a build requirement of gettext-devel, but does not mention that in the SRPM.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fetchmail-6.2.5-7.fc4.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start with a box without gettext-devel or remove it ('yum remove gettext-devel')
2. rpm -ivh fetchmail-6.2.5-7.fc4.1.src.rpm
3. cd ~/rpmbuild/SPEC (or whereved the spec files are put)
4. rpmbuild -ba fetchmail.spec
  

Actual Results:  The build process fails with the log ending in:
+ make
cd . && /bin/sh /home/roozbeh/rpmbuild/BUILD/fetchmail-6.2.5/missing --run aclocal-1.6
aclocal: configure.in: 72: macro `AM_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library
make: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 1


Expected Results:  It should have failed with a nice error message mentioning the gettext-devel package is needed.
