Comment 1 Jeff Johnson 2006-01-06 06:37:55 EST

Yep.

So do this instead
    rpm -ivh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/SRPMS/
ghostscript-8.15.1-3.1.src.rpm
    rpmbuild -bb /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/ghostscript.spec

Comment 2 Dave Mitchell 2006-01-10 16:41:23 EST

So, because there happens to be a workaround, the fact that rpmbuild fails an
internal assertion isn't a bug ???

Comment 3 Jeff Johnson 2006-01-19 15:43:15 EST

Yes, you have a workaround, use that instead.

Deferred until whenever (if that floats your boat instead).
