When trying to rebuild libgnomdedb for FE5 (note I'm the libgnomedb maintainer) the build on the ppc buildserver fails with a segfault burried within mono, strange enough libgda, who's sharp support code is very simular did build. This is 100% reproducable (3 out of 3 tries). Howto reproduce: On a up2date rawhide ppc box do: FE-cvs: cvs co libgnomedb cd libgnomedb/devel make srpm maybe? rpmbuild -bb <srpm> Probably for sure: build the srpm in mock For logs see: http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/logs/fedora-development-extras/4411-libgnomedb-1.9.100-5.fc5/ And then ppc/build.log
This seems to have built correctly: http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/logs/fedora-development-extras/4411-libgnomedb-1.9.100-5.fc5/ppc/build.log Or am i missing something? Anyway, its unlikely that we'll be able to fix this. I'd recommend reporting it to the upstream mono developers.
Like I said 100% reproducable it failed 3/3 times, after a new rawhide release I decided to try it again and the 4th time it worked, I've seen similar things before so I'm not sure if the new rawhide did the trick. Anyways I'll close this as works for me.
