Description of problem: The debugedit program fails to recognize relocs in debug info that it can fix up on ppc. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rpm-4.4.2, and looks like all rpm-4.3 and later. How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. do a kernel rpm build on ppc 2. see errors 3. marvel that noone noticed in all these years Actual results: Lots of errors like this one: /usr/lib/rpm/debugedit: /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.17-1.2419.fc6-root/lib/modules/2.6.17-1.2419.fc6smp/kernel/net/ipv6/ipv6.ko: Unhandled relocation 1 in .debug_info section Expected results: It should be able to handle that reloc type. Additional info: This looks like a simple braino/typo in the ppc part of the original reloc-fixup patch to debugedit. I'll attach the trivial patch to fix it.
