[asterisk-users] Cannot built kmod-dahdi-linux for PAE kvariant from SRPM
After many moons I have revisited this problem and found a solution that moves the problem further up the stack. I will post my new problem separately but just for completeness here is the solution. Original problem: trying to build kmod-dahdi-linux for out of date PAE kernel. Errors: rpmbuild --bb ~/localrpms/SPECS/dahdi-linux-kmod.spec --target=i686 --define kversion `uname -r` + make KVERS=2.6.18-128.el5xen modules You do not appear to have the sources for the 2.6.18-128.el5xen kernel installed. make: *** [modules] Error 1 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.78040 (%build) Solution: Specify the kernel variant in the rpm build command rpmbuild --bb ~/localrpms/SPECS/dahdi-linux-kmod.spec --target=i686 \ --define kversion `uname -r` --define kvariants 'PAE' Steve Hindmarch -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Cannot built kmod-dahdi-linux for PAE kvariant from SRPM
Jason, Thanks for that, but I am still getting an error. I run rpmbuild using this command rpmbuild --bb ~/localrpms/SPECS/dahdi-linux-kmod.spec --target=i686 --define kversion `uname -r` but it fails with this error message. make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-128.el5-i686' + popd ~/localrpms/BUILD/dahdi-linux-kmod-2.2.1 + for kvariant in '' xen PAE + pushd _kmod_build_xen ~/localrpms/BUILD/dahdi-linux-kmod-2.2.1/_kmod_build_xen ~/localrpms/BUILD/dahdi-linux-kmod-2.2.1 + make KVERS=2.6.18-128.el5xen modules You do not appear to have the sources for the 2.6.18-128.el5xen kernel installed. make: *** [modules] Error 1 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.78040 (%build) I have installed the devel packages rpm -qa | grep kernel-.*devel kernel-xen-devel-2.6.18-128.el5 kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.18-128.el5 kernel-devel-2.6.18-128.el5 Is there something else I can do?

[asterisk-users] Cannot built kmod-dahdi-linux for PAE kvariant from SRPM
I using the asterisk yum repository at http://packages.asterisk.org/centos/5/current to install a vanilla asterisk. All went well on my development server, which is a fully up to date CentOS5 machine. But now I am trying to do the same with my production server, which is an OEL5 machine with the 2.6.18-128.el5PAE kernel. This throws a dependency error for kmod-dahdi-linux. kmod-dahdi-linux-2.2.1-1_centos5.2.6.18_164.11.1.el5.i686 from asterisk-current has depsolving problems -- Missing Dependency: kernel-i686 = 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 is needed by package kmod-dahdi-linux-2.2.1-1_centos5.2.6.18_164.11.1.el5.i686 (asterisk-current) Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-i686 = 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 is needed by package kmod-dahdi-linux-2.2.1-1_centos5.2.6.18_164.11.1.el5.i686 (asterisk-current) Well I suppose I can't expect there to be a kmod package for every possible combination of dahdi version and kernel out there so I suppose I shall have to build my own. I cannot change the kernel version on the production server as it is out of my hands. So I have been trying to use the source rpm. I tried using yum to download it but the SRPMS directory is not at the same level as the RPMS directory so yum cannot see it. Instead I used wget to download dahdi-linux-kmod-2.2.1-1_centos5.2.6.18_164.11.1.el5.src.rpm, installed in a local build area and tried to build it. I installed the correct devel packages, that is both kernel-devel and kernel-PAE-devel. To begin with I just tried rpmbuild --bb ~/localrpms/SPECS/dahdi-linux-kmod.spec but that fails as the spec file relies on the internally defined kernel version error: Failed build dependencies: kernel-devel = 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 is needed by dahdi-linux-kmod-2.2.1-1_centos5.2.6.18_164.11.1.el5.i386 A brief inspection of the spec file suggested I could override the kernel version uname -r 2.6.18-128.el5PAE rpmbuild --bb ~/localrpms/SPECS/dahdi-linux-kmod.spec -D kversion `uname -r` But this fails because by the time the kernel name gets passed to the makefile the PAE has been lost:- ... ~/localrpms/BUILD/dahdi-linux-kmod-2.2.1/_kmod_build_ ~/localrpms/BUILD/dahdi-linux-kmod-2.2.1 + make KVERS=2.6.18-128.el5 modules You do not appear to have the sources for the 2.6.18-128.el5 kernel installed. Further inspection and I tried to override the kernel variant parameter with rpmbuild --bb ~/localrpms/SPECS/dahdi-linux-kmod.spec -D kversion `uname -r` -D kvariants PAE This allows the RPM to build but when I try to install it I get error: Failed dependencies: kernel-i386 = 2.6.18-128.el5PAE is needed by kmod-dahdi-linux-PAE-2.2.1-1_centos5.2.6.18_128.el5.i386 Why kernel-i386 when the kernel package I am using is kernel-PAE and really this check should be using uname -r to test the kernel version? So I think there are parts of the spec file that are broken for my needs. I would be happy help test any changes. In the mean time am I ok to do a -nodeps install of the package I have built?
