Description of problem: I have a package which needs to run 'autoreconf' during its build to re-generate autotools files. I have a BuildRequires: autoconf automake libtool gettext to pull in the neccessary pieces for autoreconf to run, however it still fails because for some crazy reason 'autopoint' requires CVS but does not depend on it + autoreconf -if autopoint: *** cvs program not found autopoint: *** Stop. autoreconf: autopoint failed with exit status: 1 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.wXXjKZ (%build) RPM build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.wXXjKZ (%build) http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1603572&name=build.log # rpm -q gettext --requires | grep cvs Note the missing dep on cvs, even though it is used. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gettext-0.17-12.fc11.i586 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install gettext 2. make sure cvs is not installed 3. Ru autopoint Actual results: Fails due to missing cvs Expected results: Installing the RPM installs all binaries required for the RPM to work. Additional info:
Sorry this is bug 469555. Ok, I will revert that change in the next build.
