0002743: where is libIDL-0.8.4-1.centos4.src.rpm

Notes
(0007032) JohnnyHughes (administrator) 2008-03-15 07:34	I can not find that SRPM anywhere. I only have the standard one in all the locations we would keep it. Let me look at this issue and see if I can recreate this SRPM.

Basically there was a bug and a path was wrong inside the la file. The difference was: Bad: libdir='/var/tmp/libIDL-0.8.4-root/usr/lib' Good: libdir='/usr/lib' the file: usr/lib/libIDL-2.la (This was for i386 ... i'm sure x86_64 has lib64)

(0007034) JohnnyHughes (administrator) 2008-03-15 08:56	it seems that our initial build was an anomaly and that just rebuilding the SRPM as is produces the correct libIDL-2.la file, so the only change in the SRPM that was required was a version-release bump (to get it to replace the original package). Since the policy is that we note any changed files with .c4 or .centos4, that was just added to the release field ... that change made the RPM release graeter allowing yum/rpm see it as an update. The actual content of the SRPM (except the release field and the changelog) is identical. If you are rebuilding this RPM for use outside CentOS-4 proper, no changes are required to the SRPM. Regardless, I will push a new SRPM into the 4.6/os/SRPMS branch in a couple minutes with the correct info. ============================================================================= NOTE: There does seem to be a "hidden build requirement" (Red Hat SPRMS for EL3 and EL4 have many of these :D) for flex with this SRPM, so if you are trying to build this in mock you will need to add flex as a Build Requires in the SRPM or use some other method to get flex into the build root. Flex quite often is one of the packages that is required and not listed, so if using mock you might just consider adding flex to your buildsys-build RPM as a require.
