This smells like a needless and unnecessary bug: On Wed, Apr 23, 2003 at 11:52:53AM -0700, Aaron Hanson wrote: > It seems that if /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/macros is present, it overrides /usr/lib/rpm/macros.

There is no reason for that dependency imho, smells more like a bug to me. In fact, now it is: 73 de Jeff
Could someone give me a build log with the failure? Is this glib or glib2?
Created attachment 91261 [details] log of failed glib build Notes: On other systems, one of the first things the %configure macro does is copy config.guess and config.sub files to the build directory. That doesn't happen here. Then it is decided that libtool doesn't support shared libraries, and thus no shared libs are built.
Please try to reproduce this against a supported release and reopen if you can.
