Message: 1

Hi,

I'm trying to build myself kdebase-3.5.6-3.src.rpm . Originally U had a buch 
of missing deps, which I was able to install, but now I am stuck on

jonesc@localhost ~/rpmbuild > rpmbuild -bb --target=`uname -p` 
SPECS/kdebase.spec
Building target platforms: i686
Building for target i686
error: Failed build dependencies:
        xorg-x11-devel is needed by kdebase-3.5.6-3.i686

as far as I can tell package 'xorg-x11-devel' doesn't exist - what am I 
missing (I'm sure its my fault...)

Chris

OK, figured out what was wrong.

The problem lines in the spec file is

%define x_deps xorg-x11-devel xorg-x11-font-utils
%if 0%{?fedora} > 4 || 0%{?rhel} > 4
%define x_modular 1
%define x_deps1 xorg-x11-proto-devel xorg-x11-font-utils imake 
%define x_deps2 libXcomposite-devel libXdamage-devel libXext-devel 
libXfixes-devel 
%define x_deps3 libXinerama-devel libXrandr-devel libXScrnSaver-devel 
libXtst-devel libXxf86misc-devel
%define x_deps4 libfontenc-devel libxkbfile-devel
%define x_deps %{?x_deps1} %{?x_deps2} %{?x_deps3} %{?x_deps4}
%endif
BuildRequires: %{x_deps}

which lead me to suspect that 0%{?fedora} > 4 was failing, since for FC6 
(which this system is)  I should not require xorg-x11-devel if I'm reading 
the above correctly.

OK, I was totally guessing now but I added to my ~/.rpmmacros file the line

%fedora 6

and amazing this worked.

So - why did I need to do this. I created my rpmbuild tree 
with 'fedora-buildrpmtree' as I've done before ? What else might I be missing 
from my ~/.rpmmacros  file ?

cheers Chris

  I tried to find what package provides xorg-x11-devel for FC6 and I failed.
Just for reference I have used repoquery and "yum provides".

  A wild guess, could it be that the requirement is placed in a block 
conditionally defined for older releases and for some reason it does not 
resolve correctly in your setup?

 Most of the packages that build in mock don't build correctly in rpmbuild 
unless the same variables are defined: %{fedora}, %{disttag}, ...

yes, the fedora tag thing was failing. See my last post.

Forgive a newbie question, but what is mock ? I've built a few SRPMS under 
rpmbuild but this is my first bash at a KDE one. I just tried the way that 
has worked before for me. Is there some better way to do this for KDE ?

$ yum info mock
...
Available Packages
Name   : mock
Arch   : i386
Version: 0.6.11
Release: 1.fc6
Size   : 34 k
Repo   : extras
Summary: Builds packages inside chroots
Description:
Mock takes a srpm and builds it in a chroot

  The advantage of this approach is building the srpm inside a chroot you 
avoid any spurious dependencies your package could have, and are not 
declared.

  Suppose that you have installed library foo, the package that you are 
building tests for its presence and finds it when building the package.

  Now you could have a problem, in order for your package to work correctly in 
other computers it needs that either the other computers have that package 
installed or that the dependence can be satisfied by the package manager. The 
purpose of those clean rooms building environment is to allow predictable and 
reproducible results when building packages.

  Another system similar to mock is mach (actually the name mock is an attempt 
to mock of mach ;-) ).

$ yum info mach
...
Available Packages
Name   : mach
Arch   : i386
Version: 0.9.1
Release: 1.fc6
Size   : 78 k
Repo   : extras
Summary: make a chroot
Description:
mach makes a chroot.
Using yum or apt-get and a suid binary, it manages to install clean chroot
environments based on the original packages for that distribution.

The clean root can be used to run jail roots, to create image files, or
to build clean packages.

Yes, thanks. I've installed mock and been investigating it. However, I cannot 
figure out how I would do one thing. What I want to do is install an srpm, 
modify the spec file (add a patch) and then carry on building the rpm.

With rpmbuild this is trivial - I'm doing it now with kdebase - but I cannot 
figure out how to do I would do this with mock ? Is it also possible ?

(Apologies if I've just missed the option in man mock... its getting late 
here)

cheers Chris

mock takes srpm's as input, similar to how rpmbiuld --rebuild works.
