Description of Problem: with the 7.1 product, you cannot build the cdp SRPM without having ncurses-devel installed. But, if "rpm -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/cdp*spec" is executed, you do NOT get an error from rpm about missing/unsatisfied build dependencies. If you install the ncurses-devel rpm, it the cdp SRPM builds without problems. How Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpm -e ncurses-devel 2. rpm -Uvh <tree-path>/SRPMS/cdp*.src.rpm 3. rpm -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/cdp*spec 4. rpm -Uvh <tree-path>/RedHat/RPMS/ncurses-devel* 5. rpm -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/cdp*spec Actual Results: first 3 steps result in a failure WITHOUT a build-requires error from rpm(1) next 2 steps build the SRPM without fail Expected Results: I would expect an rpm error message to be written to stderr informing me the cdp SRPM cannot be built without installing the ncurses-devel RPM. Additional Information:
fixed in cdp-0.33-21.src.rpm
