From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Linux 2.4.18-17.8.0 i686) Opera 6.1 [en] Description of problem: in the file config_vars.mk some bogus build path is used. This causes major problems if you try to use apxs, especially modules which try to use libtool. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Red Hat Linux release 8.0 (Psyche) <- Ha! httpd-2.0.40-8 httpd-devel-2.0.40-8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to compile an apache module which uses apxs and libtool, e.g. this one: http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-connectors/jk/release/v1.2.0/rpms/tomcat-connectors-1.2.0-1jpp.src.rpm rpm -ivh above-mentioned-rpm rpmbuild --rebuild tomcat-connectors.spec Actual Results: /bin/sh /usr/src/build/147213-i386/BUILD/httpd-2.0.40/srclib/apr/libtool --silent --mode=compile gcc -I/usr/include/httpd -g -O2 -DHAVE_JNI -I /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/include -I /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/include/linux -I../common -D_REENTRANT -c jk_jnicb.c /usr/src/build/147213-i386/BUILD/httpd-2.0.40/srclib/apr/libtool: /usr/src/build/147213-i386/BUILD/httpd-2.0.40/srclib/apr/libtool: No such file or directory make[1]: *** [jk_jnicb.lo] Error 127 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/jakarta-tomcat-connectors-jk-1.2.0-src/jk/native/jni' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.72646 (%build) Expected Results: One should not include stupid build path's in release software. :-)
A little mistake by me, the build command should be rpmbuild --bb
This was fixed in httpd-2.0.40-12; thanks for the report.
