Summary: SRC RPM build dependency for yacc not handled.
Product: Mahogany
Version: 0.65
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P3
Component: Build/Compile/Install (*IX)
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
On rpm --rebuild mahogany-0.65-0.src.rpm, the system does not warn
early on that the build will fail because yacc in not installed on
the system.
On a slow build host, it can take a very long time to reach the
point in the build where things croak because yacc is not present:
yacc wx/vcard/vcc.y && mv y.tab.c wx/vcard/vcc.c
/bin/sh: line 1: yacc: command not found
make[1]: *** [wx/vcard/vcc.o] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/RPM/BUILD/mahogany-0.65/src'
make: *** [quartstatic] Error 2
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.33597 (%build)
RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.33597 (%build)
If a tarball were being built, you could at least start over and
not rebuild every file. With the source RPM, you recompile the
whole thing from scratch when it bombs. In my case, a very long
time. (Yeah, I need a newer machine too.)
More annoying than critical, it is particularly annoying because I
have never had a build croak on a lack of yacc before - not that I
am a prolific builder or anything.
It would be nice if yacc were checked for during the ./configure phase.
