Category: Installation Group: 2.3 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 9 Submitted By: Jason Brechin (brechin) Assigned to: Thomas Naughton (naughtont) Summary: empty RPMS directories aren't in $PREFIX after make install Initial Comment: pvm mpich They have empty RPMS directories, but they are needed for when the copy the proper RPMs into that directory. It seems to be lost in the make install process. This should be fixed in the make install, but it can also be worked around in the packages' setup scripts ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Thomas Naughton (naughtont) Date: 2003-08-05 23:47 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=288102 added .oscar_dummyfile to pvm/RPMS and mpich/RPMS to keep the dirs from getting pruned during the 'make install' process. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Thomas Naughton (naughtont) Date: 2003-08-04 18:01 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=288102 ok, i'll add a simple dummy file to PVM & MPICH (in cvs) so things won't bork during the make process. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jeff Squyres (jsquyres) Date: 2003-08-04 17:40 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=11722 At this point, the lowest-cost fix is to put dummy files manually in the relevant directories and not tweak the "make install" process any further. My $0.02... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Thomas Naughton (naughtont) Date: 2003-08-04 17:38 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=288102 so is this something that should be added to CVS for pvm & mpich? or is this something at 'make dist' time for the packages files so the resulting tarball's 'make install' will function properly? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jeff Squyres (jsquyres) Date: 2003-07-29 11:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=11722 The easiest thing to do here is to put a dummy file in packages/pvm/RPMS and packages/mpich/RPMS. That way, the installation will work properly (i.e., create the directory and copy the dummy file in) -- the install process doesn't really take into consideration that there may be important (yet empty) directories. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=109368&aid=779623&group_id=9368 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
