Description of problem: fedpkg gets confused when rpm-build is not installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fedora-packager-0.5.5.0-2.fc15 Steps to Reproduce: 1. make sure rpm-build is not installed 2. try to run "fedpkg local" in a pkg clone Actual results: rpm: /path/to/package.spec: No such file or directory Could not build locally: Could not parse the spec, exited 1 Expected results: Warning that rpm-build is missing. (Not sure why rpm-build is needed to parse the spec file?:) Additional info: I dunno if fedpkg should require rpm-build, though it is not needed for fedpkg clone for example.
Ah, we used to get rpm-build when fedpkg was a direct part of fedora-packager. Now that it's a subpackage, which doesn't require fedora-packager, we lost that dep. I've added it in upstream.

Hello, starting to learn about Fedora packaging and following the https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package doc. Trying with: $ fedpkg --release f25 local sources file doesn't exist. Source files download skipped. rpm: /usr/bin/rpmspec: No such file or directory Could not execute local: Could not get n-v-r-e from '\n' so, on my up-to-date F25 system, the problem is still persising if rpm-build is not installed! After installing rpm-build I get: $ fedpkg --release f25 local sources file doesn't exist. Source files download skipped. Executing(%install): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.hgv7rX + umask 022 + cd /home/gour/prj/fedora/howdy + '[' /home/gour/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/howdy-1-1.fc25.x86_64 '!=' / ']' + rm -rf /home/gour/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/howdy-1-1.fc25.x86_64 ++ dirname /home/gour/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/howdy-1-1.fc25.x86_64 + mkdir -p /home/gour/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT + mkdir /home/gour/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/howdy-1-1.fc25.x86_64 + /usr/lib/rpm/check-buildroot + /usr/lib/rpm/brp-compress + /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip /usr/bin/strip + /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip-comment-note /usr/bin/strip /usr/bin/objdump + /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip-static-archive /usr/bin/strip + /usr/lib/rpm/brp-python-bytecompile /usr/bin/python 1 + /usr/lib/rpm/brp-python-hardlink + /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/brp-java-repack-jars Processing files: howdy-1-1.fc25.x86_64 Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files /home/gour/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/howdy-1-1.fc25.x86_64 Wrote: /home/gour/prj/fedora/howdy/howdy-1-1.fc25.src.rpm Wrote: /home/gour/prj/fedora/howdy/x86_64/howdy-1-1.fc25.x86_64.rpm Executing(%clean): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.ciGcCx + umask 022 + cd /home/gour/prj/fedora/howdy + /usr/bin/rm -rf /home/gour/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/howdy-1-1.fc25.x86_64 + exit 0 so it would be nice to fix the toolchain to install rpm-build via some dependency.
