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.

Description Jonathan Underwood 2012-05-10 16:12:25 UTC
Description of problem:
It seems that the TR1 component (at least) of the booth-math library isn't shipped. This seems to have been fixed in Fedora BZ#771370 but not backported to RHEL6. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.41.0-11.el6_1.2

Comment 2 Jonathan Underwood 2012-05-10 23:35:57 UTC
The SRPM here: 

http://jgu.fedorapeople.org/boost-1.41.0-11.el6.2.1.src.rpm

has a backport of the patch from Fedora commit 54ddcfc4141588bfa65356a1cd97aa2ecd8c3cdf which enables building of TR1, and also includes your patch for BZ #801534. I have it building overnight in mock presently.

Prospects for pushing an update?

Comment 3 Petr Machata 2012-05-11 21:57:29 UTC
This would be easy to backport and should be straightforward to test.  TR1 libraries are part of boost and it is an omission not to ship them.  People including headers from boost sub-tree (#include <boost/tr1/memory.hpp>) would notice this, otherwise (#include <memory>) I believe our core system is sufficiently complete to support TR1 even without boost.

Comment 4 Jonathan Underwood 2012-05-11 23:53:11 UTC
OK - I can confirm that the backported patch added to the RPM above does resolve this problem (as well as 801534). 

Thanks for your response. But I can't work out from your response whether you're saying a bug fix package will be pushed to rhel or not?

I am in the process of packaging up the FEniCS tools[1] for EPEL and Fedora, and without these two fixes we won't be able to include it in EPEL.

It was a statement that the engineering part is not a problem.  But there are more players in the process, and resource allocation compromises may prevent us from shipping this.

Comment 7 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 08:10:42 UTC
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 8 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 23:08:06 UTC
This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development.  This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.

Comment 9 Jonathan Underwood 2012-09-04 13:27:32 UTC
Chances of this being included as an update for 6.3, or as part of 6.4?
