From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.10) Gecko/20071213 Fedora/2.0.0.10-3.fc8 Firefox/2.0.0.10 Description of problem: Following /usr/share/doc/xerces-c-doc-2.7.0/doc/html/build-winunix.html#UNIX $ export XERCESCROOT=<full path to xerces-c-src2_7_0> First of all, this is just wrong for Linux. The LFS (Linux Filesystem hierarchy Specification) dictates where such files should go. I dislike distribution-specific custom builds that include descriptions of how to build, install, test, given that Fedora uses RPM. Anyway... I copied the samples directory to /opt/dev/xerces-c/samples - I have read/write access to this directory. I own it too. $ export XERCESCROOT=/usr/include $ ./runConfigure -plinux -cgcc -xg++ -minmem -nsocket -tnative -rpthread Even http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/build.html states this. It's also wrong - runConfigure doesn't recognise -minmem -nsocket -tnative $ sh runConfigure -plinux -cgcc -xg++ -rpthread This fails saying that it couldn't execute "configure" $ chmod +x configure $ sh runConfigure -plinux -cgcc -xg++ -rpthread $ gmake Building SAXPrint gmake -C SAXPrint gmake[1]: Entering directory `/opt/dev/xerces-c/samples/SAXPrint' Makefile:44: /usr/include/version.incl: No such file or directory gmake[1]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/include/version.incl'. Stop. gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/dev/xerces-c/samples/SAXPrint' gmake: *** [saxprint] Error 2 Same thing happens if I $ export XERCESCROOT=/usr/include/xercesc Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xerces-c-devel-2.7.0-6.fc7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Follow the instructions 2. 3. Actual Results: See above Expected Results: Built samples. Additional info: I particularly like the last lines that runConfigure outputs... If the result of the above commands look OK to you, go to the directory /usr/include/xercesc/samples and type "gmake" to make the samples. It should be /usr/share/doc/xerces-c-doc-2.7.0/samples
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
