Comment 3 Arjan van de Ven 2001-09-20 22:05:01 UTC
Yeah known and (now fixed) problem. Fixed a few hours after 0.5 was built;
but with the "rawhide is a snapshot", that snapshot sometimes is at the wrong
second ;)

Anyway, if you don't mind rebuilding the rpm, if you disable patch 870 (eg add a
# in front of %patch870 -p1) will make it work for now.

Comment 4 Jeff Busch 2001-09-21 00:39:52 UTC
ok I commented out patch 870 and the build failed ...

RPM build errors:

I can upload the whole log and spec file if you wish ... the only other things 
I changed in the spec were the %define build's at the beginning ...

Am I doing something wrong?

Comment 5 Arjan van de Ven 2001-09-21 08:12:38 UTC
Some of the %define's in the beginning are not actually tunable in the 2.4.9
kernel right now; that's to be fixed soon I hope...
