Description of problem: According to find-debuginfo.sh of rpm on RHEL6 beta2, there isn't the patch rpm-4.4.2.3-no-buildid-warning.patch that resolves IT#269860. A part of the shell script to look into is below. ... id=$(/usr/lib/rpm/debugedit -b "$RPM_BUILD_DIR" -d /usr/src/debug \ -i -l "$SOURCEFILE" "$f") || exit if [ -z "$id" ]; then ... If debugedit fails, find-debuginfo.sh exits. debugedit fails whenever "//" is included in the path specified for itself. A part of the patch to look into is below. ... id=$(/usr/lib/rpm/debugedit -b "$RPM_BUILD_DIR" -d /usr/src/debug \ - -i -l "$SOURCEFILE" "$f") || exit - if [ -z "$id" ]; then + -i -l "$SOURCEFILE" "$f") + if $strict && [ -z "$id" ]; then ... With the above patch, even if "//" is included in the path specified for debugedit, find-debuginfo.sh won't exit. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Red Hat Enterprise Linux Version Number: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 Release Number: Beta2 snapshot7 Architecture: x86_64 Kernel Version: kernel-2.6.32-44.el6.x86_64 Related Package Version: rpm-4.8.0-10.el6.x86_64
The patch to suppress buildid warnings was only added to RHEL 5 to avoid significant behavior change within a released distro version, and was intentionally omitted from RHEL 6. Best option is to fix the package, but if that's not feasible for whatever reason the strict build-id behavior can be turned off through a macro, either in spec of the affected package(s): %global _missing_build_ids_terminate_build 0 or in the macro configuration of the build environment (eg ~/.rpmmacros): %_missing_build_ids_terminate_build 0
