General :: Can't Build An Rpm
Aug 20, 2009
I'm building a perl rpm package, but cannot accomplish it under some conditions. I'm building the package on the Fed. 10 as this is my development distro. However the target machine runs on Fed. Core 4 and I cannot access it now in order to build the package there.
If, in the spec file I set 'INSTALLDIRS=vendor' the rpm gets created OK. If I set 'INSTALLDIRS=site', which is my final intention the rpmbuild cannot finish packaging. In the '%files' section the rpmbuild expects the man page to be in '/usr/share/man/man3' ( as to the %{_mandir} content ), however the man page keeps on ending in '/usr/local/share/man/man3' instead.
I tried to add 'INSTALLMAN3DIR=/usr/share/man/man3' to the %{_perl} Makefile.PL line, but still no success. I also performed some "queries" to figure out what may be the core of the problem and here is the result:
[zby@localhost ~]$ perl -V:man3dir -V:sitelib -V:vendorlib
man3dir='/usr/share/man/man3';

I'm in love with my Opensuse 11.2. Love my KDE 4.4. The only thing I miss from my Ubuntu installation, is the ability to use Boxee. I would be more than willing to compile Boxee from source. I only have 2 problems with that:
1) I don't know where I can find all the build-deps or what they are for that matter to build Boxee.
2) I'm running on a Netbook. Yes, my measly Intel Atom is no fun for compiling and building.
What are my options/what can I do to get Boxee up and running on 11.2? I've tried searching on build service for an RPM, but I think due to legal restrictions, Boxee can't be on there.

as I'm advancing in building some nice rpm I finally wanted to install on of my gems also the build was successful the actual install fails with missing dependencies.
Code:
$ rpm --root /home/sascha/rpmbuild/ -i ./RPMS/x86_64/memcached-1.4.1-2.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libc.so.6()(64bit) is needed by memcached-1.4.1-2.x86_64
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit) is needed by memcached-1.4.1-2.x86_64

I have an init script running as a special build user which performs an automated build that fails with (Too many open files).I updated /etc/security/limits to allow the special user more open files, but that didn't work - the init script still isn't allowed more open files.Here's a demonstration of the problem;
Code:
$ su - sbsbuild -c "ulimit -n"

Trying to install SW 13.1 (on DVD) on the following system: M/B Intel: DX38BT Processor Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700 - 2.66GHz, 8MB Cache, 1066MHz FSB, Socket 775 Memory Corsair Dual Channel 8192MB PC10600 DDR3 1333MHz Memory (4x2048MB) Graphics Diamond Radeon HD 3850 Video Card - Viper, 512MB GDDR3, PCI Express 2.0 P/S Ultra 1000W
My goal is to install the i386 build on one partition and the 64-bit build on another. I have been away from Linux for a while and am sick to death of Win7, want to come home. :-}
Booted on i386 side of DVD, system freezes after a couple of lines that start with ATA2. Does not respond to 3 finger salute, ctrl-c, nothing. Have to press reset. I have tried both huge.s and hugesmp.s kernels
Booted on 64-bit side, comes up fine. I performed the install, selected for automatic lilo install. Lilo install hung but I was able to reboot. I booted off the 64-bit side again, entered the following: huge.s root=/dev/sde3 rdinit= ro It booted fully to the login prompt but the keyboard does not work, no input.

I've been using and relying on linux for some time. I have even tried distributions like Arch. I was wondering what would be a good book for learning the inner workings of linux, how to write shell scripts, compile my own kernel, how to build my own distribution, things like that. I also would like to know if there is a good book for linux networking works. I want to be able to modify distributions specifically for my hardware, and have a better home net work set up.

I am trying to build a rpm that basically changes the root password on a system. Here is what my spec file looks like:
Summary: Update the root password
Name: update_passwd
Version: 1.0
Release: 1
[code]....
However, when I run a "rpmbuild -ba specfile", I only get a *src.rpm under /usr/src/redhat/SRPMS, but no rpm file. I have never created a rpm and was wondering if there is something I am missing in my spec file?

I am trying to build an application on linux and it requires compilation of several files along with my application. Till now I have been trying using a makefile which is built for a test application which uses almost the same files as the mine by replacing its main.c file. But mow have ended up writing everything, function declarations, definitions... in the same file looks very unprofessional and is quite difficult to manage. an IDE to build this? I saw quite a few IDE's supported on linux but they are all appropriate for C++, GTK, java languages and not C.

I am in the beginning stages of building an LFS (http://linuxfromscratch.org) system, but the thing is I don't have any space on my laptop to build it on. However, recently the GPU on my desktop went down and I have been unwilling to take the steps to have it fixed (variety of reasons). My main worry about building an LFS system was about rendering the computer unusable, but since this machine was already broken...I am looking at this as an opportunity.
I had two hard-drives on the desktop, one with linux (ssh enabled) and the other had windows which I subsequently deleted. Since I can't use the desktop directly because of the broken GPU, I am thinking of using ssh to connect and build the rest from there. So far, everything seems to be going according to plan, but I am just beginning the build, so thus far I have only partitioned and built the filesystems.

I'm trying to install "crosstool" from [URL] in order to create an arm-linux-gcc toolchain for an ARM target. I'm using Slackware 9.0 as I'm using a program(Sim-panalyzer) which seems to install only on such old versions. The installation proceeds fine for about 30 mins until i get an error like
Code:
a - elf/dl-profstub.os
a - elf/dl-libc.os
a - elf/dl-sym.os
a - elf/dl-tsd.os
[Code].....
I tried Linux Mint and I was able to install flex and bison but after some stage of the crosstool installation I got an error like
"these packages are either missing or too old: as ld"

I am using ubuntu hardy and python 2.6.5 (built from sources). For a custom python packager I need to rebuild python interpreter (python executable). I am new to linux and don't have much knowledge of gcc and other stuff. Here is the process:1. Copy python.c as myapp.c. myapp.c is in the same directory (python2.6.5) in which I have all the required files. 2. Using the syntax from makefile of python sources, here is my first command to produce myapp.o
Code:
gcc -pthread -c -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -I. -IInclude -I/home/zeno/installed/Python-2.6.5/Include -fPIC -DPy_BUILD_CORE -c myapp.c -o myapp.o
This produce myapp.o but throws a warning:
Code:
myapp.c:24:2: warning: no newline at end of file
Next is to produce the executable or python interpreter:
Code:
gcc -pthread -Xlinker -export-dynamic -o $@ myapp.o -L. -lpython2.6 -lpthread -ldl -lutil -lm -o myapp
This is causing an error:
Code:
/usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.4/../../../../lib/crt1.o: In function `_start':
(.text+0x18): undefined reference to `main'

I tried to build VLC from source and stuck up with the following error.
configure: error: Package requirements (fribidi) were not met:
No package 'fribidi' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables FRIBIDI_CFLAGS
and FRIBIDI_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

I was reading about Linux and found out that you can apparently custom build your own operating system.
The thing is, it all sounds great for what I would like to do but my knowledge in that area is zero, or sub-zero.
My question is: is there an operating system out there, that will start up the computer, then have a browser installed on it - lets say Firefox - with a homepage www.example.com?... (no start button or taskbar)
Maybe no toolbars or anything else except the webpage itself.
Also the hardware should be plug and play, such as printers, mobiles scanners or any usb driven devices.

mc (Midnight Commander) in Kubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) has a problem accessing .zip and other archives as a virtual file system. It has to do with a changed format of the output from unzip. Discussions offer a workaround, but that requires system (i.e. root) file access; my work box is locked down.
I have Ubuntu (without the K) 9.10 at home, and I downloaded the source package and made a code change that's a horrible hack (I would not dream of publishing) that would allow me to run my own correctly working copy of mc in a subdirectory of my $HOME. Alas, my "at home" box is configured differently, both in terms of processor(s) and KDE vs. Gnome; a transferred-over mc executable fails immediately with bus error.
