Comment 3 John Mahowald 2006-03-04 22:21:09 UTC
Doesn't build on development due to X modularization.

No Package Found for xorg-x11-devel

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Xorg/Modularization

Comment 4 John Mahowald 2006-03-07 03:16:55 UTC
Actually, you can avoid the issue with X modularization, becuase you do not need
BuildRequires xorg-x11-devel because qt-devel needs it, and in turn you don't
need qt-devel because kdelibs-devel needs it.

%{_datadir}/apps/%{name}/*

You have to own %{_datadir}/apps/pikdev/ itself. Drop the *.

- no unnecessary BR
- locales handled by %find_lang
- not relocatable
- owns all directories that it creates
- no duplicate files
- permissions ok
- %clean ok

Unfortunately, pikdev fails to build on ppc. 
Could somebody have a look?

Looks like non-portable code to me. AFAICT (I don't have access to ppc systems,
but have the glibc2 sources), sys/io.h is not available as part of the ppc's glibc2.

Besides this, I see more issues: The i386 log shows the package stripping
executables/libraries and not correctly propagating RPM_OPT_FLAGS.

So, what I have to do: 
- exclude ppc arch? 
- try to find if exist a file which provide similar functions?

I have no experience about that. What I have to do?

That's one option, suiteable as a short term aid.

Better contact upstream and let them solve this issue.

There are at least 2 issues:

1. Makefile.pkp is broken
It suffers from 2 issues:
a) It uses "gcc -lstdc++" to link.
This is a bug. It must use "g++" to link.
b) You must propagate RPM_OPT_FLAGS to it

The least intrusive approach to both problems would be to override
Makefile.pkp's hard-coded crap from make's command line inside of the spec, i.e.
to use something along this line:

make -f Makefile.pkp \
CCPP=g++ \
LINK=g++ \
CCPPOPT="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS -DPKP_VERSION=0.8.4" \
LIBS=

2. You are using "make install-strip"
This will strip executables during installation and render debug-infos unusable.
Simply use
"make install DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_DIR"
instead of
"make install-strip DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_DIR"

Buildsys reports no error. 
Could you please have a look on build.log to see if everything is really OK 
before I close this bug?

Not really. 
Just have a quick look when the first version (0.1.0) was released. 
 
Why? 
Do you want I package it? 

Comment 14 Alain Portal 2006-03-15 13:56:29 UTC
Strange... 
pikdev failed to build on FC-4 on x86_64 because ./configure couldn't find qt 
lib. 
http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/logs/fedora-4-extras/6368-pikdev-0.8.4-4.fc4/ 
 
Any idea on how to fix?

Even stranger: I could reproduce it on i386/FC4!

[No idea why this didn't fail inside of the buildsys.
Does the buildsys set QTDIR?]

> Any idea on how to fix? 
Try adding this right before the %configure inside of the spec

[ -n "$QTDIR" ] || . %{_sysconfdir}/profile.d/qt.sh

Sorry, I don't understand: you said build failed on i386/FC4? 
But this is my config, and I build successfully...

Argghhh !  
Build fails, $QTDIR seems to be set.

Comment 18 Ville Skyttä 2006-03-15 20:38:02 UTC
Please remember to file a separate bug about ExcludeArch: ppc and make it block
bug 179260 (see that bug and
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ReviewGuidelines#head-2f03bba0a9f05b2ac0128eb1d70b1e3ce9f9dc40

Should I have to excludearch x86_64 on FC-4?

Comment 22 Rex Dieter 2006-04-05 10:47:28 UTC
Put this before %configure:
unset QTDIR || : ; . /etc/profile.d/qt.sh
export QTLIB=${QTDIR}/lib QTINC=${QTDIR}/include

at least until bug #169132 is backported/released for FC-4.

Work fine! 
Thanks. 
 
> at least until bug #169132 is backported/released for FC-4. 
 
This bug is closed in rawhide since 6 months 
Why not fixed in FC-4? 
 

Comment 24 David Woodhouse 2006-04-05 13:19:40 UTC
See comment in bug #185615. The PPC build is trivial to fix -- please do so.
And please pay a _little_ more attention before deciding to exclude architectures.
