Description of problem: I am opening this bug to track the issue pointed out @ https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2008-April/msg01021.html . Indeed, this is a regression; the earlier version of the mpich2 package that failed to build because of this issue (and contains the same check that relies on the presence of /dev/shm), built successfully in koji last november (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=259823). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
This is fixed in 0.9.8 for builds (mock --rebuild ...). Builds with 0.9.8 (currently in rawhide) should work ok. Clark is working on a patch to fix this for mock --shell. Version 0.9.8 should be released to F7/F8 my May.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '9'. 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 9'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 9 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
