Description of problem: The BUILD environment is somehow unsetting an existing Display variable Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): R-widgetTools-1.15.0-2 How reproducible: rpmbuild --rebuild R-widgetTools-1.15.0-2orc.src.rpm [the local %dist variable is so set, but this is the RawHide version] I see: ** preparing package for lazy loading Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... Warning in fun(...) : no DISPLAY variable so Tk is not available done ** help but ... [herrold@centos-5 R]$ set | grep DISPLAY DISPLAY=:0.0 [herrold@centos-5 R]$ [herrold@centos-5 R]$ rpm -qa tk\* tcl\* tclx-8.4.0-5.fc6 tcl-devel-8.4.13-3.fc6 tclx-devel-8.4.0-5.fc6 tclx-doc-8.4.0-5.fc6 tkinter-2.4.3-24.el5 tcl-devel-8.4.13-3.fc6 tk-devel-8.4.13-5.el5_1.1 tcl-html-8.4.13-3.fc6 tcl-mysqltcl-3.05-1orc tcl-8.4.13-3.fc6 tk-8.4.13-5.el5_1.1 tclx-devel-8.4.0-5.fc6 tk-devel-8.4.13-5.el5_1.1 tcl-8.4.13-3.fc6 tk-8.4.13-5.el5_1.1 [herrold@centos-5 R]$ Steps to Reproduce: as above Actual results: a failed build, in that it lacks Tk support Expected results: a working rebuild Additional info: I don't know that I have much else to add, but will respond as asked, of course
Is the problem still present in 1.18.0 ?
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

You can't expect to have DISPLAY in the buildroot. The builders are nominally headless boxes.

Based on what I can see here: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-mac/2008-May/004958.html It would be a problem from tcltk.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle. Changing version to '12'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This issue is not resolved in F-12, and really is a long running issue in need of a better buildroot -- moving back into RawHide
I have never been able to reproduce this bug, can you still ? I am open to any suggestion to correct this. By any chance does this appear in a machine running X ?
will check in a clean install
test environment reconfirms the problem persists -- building a update report
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 13 development cycle. Changing version to '13'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Are you still able to reproduce this bug ?
This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. 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 '13'. 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 13'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 13 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
Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
