Requesting RHEL 5 acks for this bug. The fix is very minor - just an update to the dist tag in the spec file. No code, build, or packaging changes at all. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion, but this component is not scheduled to be updated in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. If you would like this request to be reviewed for the next minor release, ask your support representative to set the next rhel-x.y flag to "?". This bug does not affect the package itself. It only affects rebuilding the srpm, and only if the dist macro is undefined. This makes it very, very low impact and easily worked around. All the customer has to do is either make the above change when rebuilding, or even more simply, pass --define 'dist .el5rebuild' (or similar) on the rpmbuild command line. So do we even need to release note this for 5.2? I would be fine just fixing this for 5.3 and not doing anything for 5.2. yes lets do this 5.3, please .. so the complete command to build the SRPM would be: rpmbuild --define 'dist el5rebuild' svrcore please advise so we can put it in the release notes. thanks! Hello, I think that this discussion should be taken to the more general tracker bug 440605. IMHO this is not serious enough to appear in release notes. This bug will only prevent rebuilding of this RHEL-5 package on RHEL-4 (is there anybody doing this?). thanks Jan. clearing release note flag, then. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion, but this component is not scheduled to be updated in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. If you would like this request to be reviewed for the next minor release, ask your support representative to set the next rhel-x.y flag to "?". fixed in RHEL-6 |
