Aha. Seems I hit a peculiarity in rpmbuild. Problem solved, nothing to see. :)
$ grep -A5 -e '^%configure' /usr/lib/rpm/macros
%configure \
CFLAGS="${CFLAGS:-%optflags}" ; export CFLAGS ; \

FFLAGS="${FFLAGS:-%optflags}" ; export FFLAGS ; \

Obviously, that line above should have been (with the same result):

I just tested in a new clean wheezy debootstrap, and it behaves as
expected, too. What is your distro, so I can try to reproduce it here?

By default, the binaries should all ne prefixed with 'kconfig-' to avoid

(Not all frontends are installed, because that minimal debootstrap is
lacking Qt and GTK+.)
Note, it is possible to override that default tools prefix with any of:
--program-prefix=PREFIX
--program-suffix=SUFFIX
--program-transform-name=PROGRAM
The default is PREFIX='kconfig-' (contrary to the traditional empty prefix).
(I hope that did not trash your system...)

Yann E. MORIN.

This seems to install
/usr/bin/conf
/usr/bin/diff
/usr/bin/gettext
/usr/bin/merge
/usr/bin/tweak
Which conflicts quite hard with various preexisting system packages.
$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/diff
diffutils-3.2-2.1.2.x86_64
$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/gettext
gettext-runtime-0.18.1.1-15.2.2.x86_64
$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/merge
rcs-5.8-1011.1.2.x86_64
You need to give your binaries better names -- or a separate path
(like /usr/libexec/kconfig-frontends/{conf,diff,gettext,...} by
way of pkglibexec_PROGRAMS = conf diff gettext...)

kconfig-frontends-3.8.0.0 release
Hello All! I'm pleased to announce the release of kconfig-frontends 3.8.0.0! Go download it there: http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/download/kconfig-frontends/kconfig-frontends-3.8.0.0.tar.xz http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/download/kconfig-frontends/kconfig-frontends-3.8.0.0.tar.bz2 The kconfig-frontends package provides the kconfig parser, as well as all the kconfig frontends and utilities, packaged using the traditional autotools, so the kconfig infrastructure is easy to deploy, either locally or system-wide. What's new since 3.7.0.0: - some huge cleanups to the auto-tools infrastructure, kindly suggested and mentored by Jan Engelhardt - there was no kconfig changes in 3.8 This release marks the first anniversary at maintaining this project. It has been fun, and I learnt quite a bit since the first announcement here, roughly one year ago [0]. The first release, 3.3.0-0, has been covered [1] by LWN.net (Hello! :-) ), and I'm quite proud of such an achievement! Work on kconfig-frontends would not have been so easy without the works of the many kernel contributors, and I'd like to take the opportunity to thank you all for your amazing work! So, time has come to lay out the plans for the future: - continue to release as soon as possible after each kernel release: this has proved to be challenging at times, when there are agenda conflicts (kernel release during holidays, or just before a conference) but is globally manageable; - migrate the repository from Hg to git (on-going) ;-) being a noob at git at the time I spawned kconfig-frontends, I used the tools I knew how to use at the time, in order not to bust the repository. Hg has proved to do the job well for me, but now that I'm up to speed with git, time has come for a switch; - present (lightning-talk-like) the project at a conference I'm self-funded, so will concentrate on Europe (and specifically, France and neighbouring countries). Not too sure which conference for now. Any help chosing? ;-) As a reminder, the home for kconfig-frontends is: http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/projects/kconfig-frontends And the repository can be browsed or hg-cloned from: http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/hg/kconfig-frontends kconfig-frontends is not meant to replace the in-tree Linux kconfig, but really targets third-party projects that want an easy path to following the evolution of kconfig, without the burden to manually synchronise from the Linux kernel source tree. Any comment, any feedback, any patch is welcome! ;-) [0] http://marc.info/?l=linux-kbuild&m=132753216310722 [1] https://lwn.net/Articles/487487/ Regards, Yann E. MORIN. -- .-..--.. | Yann E.
