Twinkle srpm doesn't build without qt3-devel
Last modified: 2009-04-09 10:53:53 EDT
Description of problem: .spec file should be updated to include build requirement of qt3-devel or to add --disable-qt-check to %configure Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.4.2-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download src.rpm 2. rpmbuild --rebuild it Actual results: Build fails with complaint of missing qt-mt.pc Expected results: Successful build
The spec has a BuildRequire on kdelibs3-devel, which should require qt3-devel... Is that not being pulled in?
Arrg. I forgot that I had removed BuildRequire kdelibs3-devel last night. I was building a custom rpm that installs without all the kde fluff and kde-addressbook tie-in. As it's really a problem with mucking about with the .spec and not strictly a problem with the .spec I offer my apologies. My bad. I can understand why sub-dependancies wouldn't be included. Although if qt3-devel had been in there it would have saved me an hour figuring out how to build my non-kde rpm.
Yeah, sorry about that. :( I suppose I could add qt3-devel in there just in case... Anyhow, shall we close this now?
Yeah. I suspect that most people who would take the time to edit the .spec file and make a non-kde build of twinkle would be able to eventually figure out what was wrong. And it's not really a bug when it's due to end-user customization of the package so closing this would probably be best.
