This is useful information with regards to the utility of filing similar bug reports in future. > If you need to use the same 0.5.0 version as is currently in EPEL, you may > need to set up a separate 7.0.1406 (or perhaps something slightly newer) > build environment for this package. Yes, this is the case and yes, although inconvenient, this is what I will do. Many thanks for your help with this. ___ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/G6LORD6PQASBZ5S2UMENUG67TXIKYYTD/

My understanding is that older point releases are not supported or is that incorrect? So this is a FTBFS bug (fails to build from source). The package maintainer will need to address this issue eventually, for example when the package needs to be rebuilt to fix some other bug. In this view the bug is useful as a "heads up" that there is something to take into account. I also wonder about the "high" priority of your bug. Why do you need to compile the rpm yourself? Is "yum install dbus-c++-devel" not possible? Well...I just need to...for my own reasons. The issue is high priority to me, but I won't be offended if the priority is lowered by an admin on bugzilla. See, the reason I asked about this is that I would like to know what you are really trying to achieve. This would help us to give you the best assistance for moving forward. Not knowing the details -- if you are not concerned about backwards compatibility and just want to rebuild dbus-c++ for your own use, I would suggest getting the latest SRPM for dbus-c++, getting the latest bleeding edge version from https://sourceforge.net/projects/dbus-cplusplus/ and modifying the dbus-c++ spec file to reference the new tarball and updating the version identifier in the spec file accordingly. If you need to use the same 0.5.0 version as is currently in EPEL, you may need to set up a separate 7.0.1406 (or perhaps something slightly newer) build environment for this package. ___ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/QQTJBGVSCG4EW6CLS32ZQGY43CJLXNCS/

I'm sure it would.

Apart from that, providing hints for how to fix the compilation would no doubt speed up resolving the bug. Yes, this does build cleanly with CentOS 7.0.1406. I think I'll leave it to others to determine what exactly broke the compilation between 7.0 and 7.5. Perhaps dbus-c++ needs to be rebased to be compilable on 7.5, but that in turn may cause other issues. ___ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/T6PPLLKNGGBPW2CAEBHIGJ5GUT2ZM3BV/
