Description Renaud Métrich 2021-09-02 11:58:13 UTC
Description of problem:

Got an update of python3-rpkg a few days ago, now I cannot extract the Grub workspace:

$ fedpkg prep --builddir foo
Could not execute prep: Error running rpmspec on "/home/rmetrich/FEDPKG/grub2/grub2.spec", return code 1

This happens whatever the branch is.

Downgrading to 1.62-1 works again.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

python3-rpkg-1.63-1

How reproducible:

Always

Comment 1 Ondřej Nosek 2021-09-02 13:15:26 UTC
I am sorry, this is already known bug in f34
It is caused with the new release of rpkg-1.63-1. The issue was revealed after f34 release was moved to the stable. But now it is fixed in rpkg-1.63-2

If you want to know more ...

rpkg-1.62 should be safe for grub2

or there is fixed 1.63-2 for f34 prepared in the testing repo:

Comment 2 Renaud Métrich 2021-09-02 13:35:16 UTC
Thanks Ondrej,

The test fix for for "fedpkg" for me, but not "rhpkg":


$ rpm -qa python3-rpkg
python3-rpkg-1.63-2.fc34.noarch

$ rhpkg prep --builddir foo
Could not execute prep: Error running rpmspec on "/home/rmetrich/RHPKG/grub2/grub2.spec", return code 1

Author of the feature that originally caused this regression here.
I am sorry for the trouble this has caused.
Unfortunately, I have never done anything with rhpkg or rhel before.
How can I install rhpkg on Fedora so I could try to reproduce this?
And was this still on grub2 repo from src.fedoraproject.org,
even if you are manipulating it with rhpkg?

@oturpe:
Thanks for your interest. rhpkg is Red Hat's internal tool based on rpkg. I am afraid it is only available in the internal network (both code and packages).

@rmetrich:
I tried to recreate it on F33. Packages with the same version should be the same across distributions. But I didn't see the error so far. Will you, please, provide more information about your recreation? Including the repository's branch.

$ dnf install rhpkg
# get new rpkg 1.63-2
$ dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --advisory=FEDORA-2021-20e5f8a6b8
$ rpm -qa | grep rpkg
rpkg-common-1.63-2.fc33.noarch
python3-rpkg-1.63-2.fc33.noarch
$ rpm -qa | grep rhpkg
rhpkg-1.42-3.fc33eng.noarch
$ rhpkg clone grub2
$ cd grub2
$ git checkout rhel-9.0.0
$ rhpkg prep --builddir foo
# works
+exit 0

Thank you for explaining this.
I suspected something like that,
because I could not find it with a search engine.
That being the case,
I am afraid there is not much I can do.

Perhaps the error message given when rpmspec fails
should include stderr in addition to return code
so that it would be more obvious what happened.

Comment 6 Renaud Métrich 2021-09-03 06:54:23 UTC
OK sorry for the confusion here, apparently only rhel-7.9 branch is affected.
And adding stderr in the exception, I can see it's due to a "known issue":

pyrpkg.errors.rpkgError: Error running rpmspec on "/home/rmetrich/RHPKG/grub2/grub2.spec", return code 1, stderr do_primary_efi_build: invalid option -- 'f'
error: /home/rmetrich/RHPKG/grub2/grub2.spec: line 157: Unknown option f in do_primary_efi_build()


This always happens with rhpkg from fedora (to extract rhel-7.9 grub2 branch, I need to use a rhpkg on RHEL7 ...).

So, please ignore ...

Still I think having the stderr printed could help troubleshooting.

Comment 7 Ondřej Nosek 2021-09-06 16:24:48 UTC
I added the output for these debug messages, that rpmspec provides:
