I'm preparing a rpm for Centos 5 (so we can keep more build questions away from the ML :) ) and I'm quite near a good result. In fact, within EPEL repo I found boost 1.41 and postgres 8.4 so I could complete a build against those instead of compiling from sources.
However, I had three failing tests: two of them (70 and 71) pass if I patch (see attachment) the python version check in TestRunner.py with a try/except (I'm not sure why it excludes python 2.4, that version actually was the first one to include the subprocess module it needs to import). The last failing one is 76, and this happens because PIL had no "BGRA" raw mode back then, so this need some patching as well. So I tried to build against python26 (which includes a newer PIL, also available in EPEL) but failed for a different reason (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=843088) so, before continuing on either paths, I'd like to know your opinion on the topic. In particular, is there any strong preference to either python 2.4 or 2.6? I usually try to stick to what the base distribution provides, but clearly there are python26+ only modules out there or they would need to add that package in the repos. -- Gianluca Sforna http://morefedora.blogspot.com http://identi.ca/giallu - http://twitter.com/giallu
