Description Eugene Kanter 2001-12-02 22:41:06 UTC 
Description of Problem:

YP Makefile uses mawk, but package does not require it. Please add to .spec
file requres section.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.3.12-2
Comment 1 Florian La Roche 2001-12-08 21:08:24 UTC 
Should be "gawk" and not mawk for Red Hat Linux.
I added an gawk require to ypserv-2.2-2 or higher.

Thanks,

Florian La Roche
Comment 2 Eugene Kanter 2001-12-10 13:39:43 UTC 
ypservr has mawk hardcoded in its Makefile. Does the gawk package provide an 
executable named "mawk" or the ypserv makefile has been updated to reflect it?
