Description of problem: mktemp uses the TMPDIR environment variable. The brp-java-repack-jars script resets TMPDIR to arbitrary values that don't necessarily exist, and then tries to use mktemp. Failures ensue. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-rpm-config-8.0.45-14.fc7 How reproducible: intrinsic Steps to Reproduce: 1. try to build, for example, a jpackage.org nosrc rpm 2. watch it not work. 3. there is no step three. Actual results: it fails with an error message about a temporary directory not existing. Expected results: it shouldn't be looking there anyway Additional info: replace all instances of TMPDIR in this script with something like JTMPDIR and the problem is solved
This is still a problem in current Fedora Rawhide (pre-f8, at this point), and in RHEL5. It's an easy fix -- please make it.
Push will be fixed for rawhide later today
Thanks man.
Also, this probably deserves to get put in an update for RHEL5 eventually.
Cloned as a RHEL5 bug. Jon.
