RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

The build is broken by gzip-1.3.13-rsync.patch - rebuilding without solves the problem.

--- Additional comment from kklic on 2010-05-05 08:02:33 EDT ---

I cannot reproduce it on my machine (i686). 

`gzip -t expat-2.0.1.tar.gz` succeeds both with F-12 and F-13.

Do you use x86_64?

--- Additional comment from kklic on 2010-05-05 08:15:31 EDT ---

Ah, you also have i686, sorry.

I also tested it on F-13 x86_64 and `gzip -t expat-2.0.1.tar.gz` works there as well. 

Do we have the same expat-2.0.1.tar.gz?

$ md5sum expat-2.0.1.tar.gz 
ee8b492592568805593f81f8cdf2a04c  expat-2.0.1.tar.gz

--- Additional comment from stefan.sorensen on 2010-05-05 08:24:03 EDT ---

Yes, same md5sum. Ubuntu seems to have the same bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524366

--- Additional comment from kklic on 2010-05-10 11:31:29 EDT ---

The preferred solution for me is to remove the rsync patch. It failed to find its way to the upstream release, and now it causes problems that cannot be easily reproduced.

I'll remove that patch from Rawhide if no fix is found in reasonable time.

--- Additional comment from kklic on 2010-06-28 10:48:48 EDT ---

Most likely the issue was not caused by the rsync patch.

Comment 4 Martin Cermak 2010-08-30 09:54:57 UTC 
I am not able to reproduce this. Neither the developer is able to do it according to [1] and to our irc communication. This was fixed according to the reporter's suggestion and tested by him [2], [3]. Can not verify, thus setting the SanityOnly flag.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.
