Good: I can likely help with build issues efficiently because its easy for me to
check in a patch and to add reasonable build options on Mac OS X.
You might want to read through the developer "cheat sheet" for how to build
from CVS in INSTALL.developer.
Note that the rpm-5.4 branch is expecting Berkeley DB 5.2.x with
includes in
${prefix}/include/db52
and libraries in
${prefix}/lib/libdb52*
So you can save yourself some pain by installing db-5.2.x until
you get a complete build. Any version of Berkeley DB back to
db-4.5.x will suffice and its not impossibly hard to patch in
what is needed.
But the rpm-5_4 branch in CVS is most definitely expecting
db-5.2.x to be installed.

Building RPM is rather different in order to support Have it your own way! needs. If building from a CVS checkout, one builds like this ./devtool checkout # this will populate lua/neon/beecrypt/peecrypt/etc subdirs ./devtool system where "system" is chosen as needed and references a complex set of build options instantiated in devtool.conf. If building from a tar ball (inside the distributed *.src.rpm), then you will need to choose what options to pass to ./configure carefully. Building rpm-5.4 is not just ./configure --prefix=/some/where and running make like many other projects. So how are you trying to build rpm-5.4?

ugh! Sorry about all the exposed HTML. Not sure why it happened, but I am switching to plain text. Looking a little more closely at the output from autogen.sh, it look like the Lua library is missing (and required, apparently). autogen.sh may not be finishing and therefore not creating the Makefile.in Maury From: Maurice Bouchard To: "rpm-users@rpm5.org" Sent: Monday, November 28, 2011 2:41 PM Subject: RPM v5.4 - config.status: Missing 'Makefile.in' Greetings, I am trying to build rpm v5.4 for Mac OS X 10.6.8 but am stalling at config.status.
