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.

Fixed In Version: cmake-2.8.12.2-2.el6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Prior to this update, CMake ignored some options when working with the rpmbuild-4.8 package. As a consequence, building RPM packages on an RPM-based system failed. With this update, CMake works with rpmbuild-4.8 correctly, and the above problem no longer occurs.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2014:1506 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE cmake bug fix and enhancement update 2014-10-14 01:22:34 UTC

Description Daniel Franke 2011-11-10 16:13:07 UTC 
Description of problem:
CMake/CPack 2.6.4 does not work well with rpmbuild-4.8 due to an ignored option in the generated spec file, hence building RPM packages on a rpm-based system fails.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
$> cmake --cersion
cmake version 2.6-patch-4

$> rpmbuild --version
RPM version 4.8.0

Additional info:
See earlier description of the problem and the then suggested fix:
    http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2009-June/030035.html
    http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2009-March/028301.html
Resolved cmake bug:
    http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=8967

Updating the CPackRPM.cmake as indicated in the second ml-link indeed fixed the problem for me.

This might be an incentive to reconsider #606892?

Yes, this is what I applied to my local files, fixed the problem.
If we could get a bugfix update regardless of comment #2, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.

Comment 10 Orion Poplawski 2014-03-05 17:14:20 UTC 
FYI - cmake28 is available from Fedora EPEL.
Comment 11 Brad Bell 2014-03-06 12:44:46 UTC 
Adding
    BuildRequires: cmake28
and changing the
    %build
command from cmake to cmake28 seems to have fixed the problem.

Thanks
