When building xbmc on f14 in mock or in the RPM Fusion build system, versions of nasm >= 2.09 causes problems on i686 machines: make[1]: Entering directory `/builddir/build/BUILD/xbmc-Dharma_beta1/xbmc/cores/paplayer/SPCCodec/SNES/SNESAPU' nasm -Xvc -DLINUX -O1 -f elf -o SPC700.o SPC700.Asm SPC700.Asm(328) : error: `%assign' expects a macro identifier SPC700.Asm(328) : error: `%assign' expects a macro identifier SPC700.Asm(377) : error: `%assign' expects a macro identifier SPC700.Asm(377) : error: `%assign' expects a macro identifier SPC700.Asm(377) : error: `%assign' expects a macro identifier SPC700.Asm(440) : error: `%assign' expects a macro identifier SPC700.Asm(481) : error: interminable macro recursion SPC700.Asm(481) : error: `%xdefine' expects a macro identifier SPC700.Asm(481) : error: interminable macro recursion SPC700.Asm(481) : error: `%xdefine' expects a macro identifier SPC700.Asm(806) : error: `%assign' expects a macro identifier full log is here: http://buildsys.rpmfusion.org/logs/fedora-development-rpmfusion_free/8078-xbmc-10.0-0.12.Dharma_beta1.fc14/i686/build.log This did not happen with builds with 2.08 and lower with the identical tarball e.g.: http://buildsys.rpmfusion.org/logs/fedora-development-rpmfusion_free/7978-xbmc-10.9-0.11.Dharma_beta1.fc14/i686/build.log

Not sure if this is the same bug, but it seems that this might have been fixed upstream, not sure it's yet made it's way into the 2.09.01 in f14: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3026808&group_id=6208&atid=106208

(In reply to comment #4) > I reported this upstream at: > > http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3066383&group_id=6208&atid=106208 Thanks. I checked 2.09.01 version and problem is still present there. When upstream fixes this issue I will release update for Fedora.
