I just tried to build monit-5.0-beta1 using its included monit.spec under CentOS 4. It fails due to RPM version names not allowing hyphens:
$ mach build monit.spec Building .src.rpm from monit.spec ERROR: Failed parsing spec file 'monit.spec' (return value 1). Output follows: error: line 3: Illegal char '-' in version: Version: 5.0-beta1 The attached patch fixes this by building 5.0_beta1 instead of 5.0-beta1. Of course this won't be needed once the software is released :-) But it also fixes the following errors: configure: error: monit requires flex, not lex ... checking for SSL include directory... Not found Couldn't find your SSL header files. Use --with-ssl-incl-dir option to fix this problem or disable the SSL support with --without-ssl ... + make yacc -dt p.y make: yacc: Command not found make: *** [y.tab.c] Error 127 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.1667 (%build) by adding explicit build dependencies on flex, bison and openssl-devel. Building in a clean chroot environment is very good at finding these :-) Regards, Brian. P.S. Aside: UPGRADE.txt doesn't mention the config file syntax changes from 4.10.1 to 5.0, although CHANGES.txt does. UPGRADE.txt is also missing from the final RPM package. Perhaps this is intentional, if it is obsolete. Or was it forgotten from %doc ?
