Description of problem:
The files 
/usr/lib/lib{ucdmibs,ucdagent,mibs}.la

(included in the ucd-snmp-devel sub-package) contain 

libdir='/usr/src/build/40462-i386/install/usr/lib'

entries. If you recompile the ucd-snmp packages you obtain

libdir='<your rpm build root>/usr/lib'

I think It's a bug but I'm not sure if it harms.

I found this when I was 'stracing' snmpd
and saw several lines where the daemon is trying
unsuccessfuly to open() files
like '/var/tmp/ucd-snmp/usr/lib/i686/mmx/libucdmibs...'

(I was using a locally rebuilt source rpm package)

Maybe these open attempts are signs of another different  
bug.


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


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. $ rpm -q ucd-snmpd-devel
     ucd-snmp-devel-4.2.1-7
2. $ cat /usr/lib/libsnmp.la



Actual Results:  The libdir entries in the 
/usr/lib/lib{ucdmibs,ucdagent,mibs}.la
have wrong paths.



Expected Results:  The libdir entries in the 
/usr/lib/lib{ucdmibs,ucdagent,mibs}.la
files should have the '/usr/lib' value


Additional info:

The newest RHL 6.2 errata packages for ucd-snmp
(4.2.1-4.6.x) suffer from the same problem.

Comment 1 Phil Knirsch 2002-01-29 15:30:27 UTC
The latest version (4.2.3) is available via rawhide now. This should fix this
problem.

Thanks,

Read ya, Phil
