I'm learning as I go. I'm testing things out so I can learn to do source
builds and patches for freedom, justice and the RedHat Way under fedora!
I am trying to get a package into redhat from another direction, as I
did not see the package available on rpmfind, etc.
So, I pull down grace source from mandrake, pull down the t1lib-devel
source and the netcdf source mandrake rpms and build and install the
latter. Rather painless, except for the search.
Now, I try rpmbuild -bb grace.spec.
It goes well, down to the last. Now, I'm a bit puzzled, and this will
probably clue me in on a huge lot of things. I download the grace
tarball, and it builds just fine. the grace source rpm does not.
Here is my error
updating cache ./config.cache
creating ./config.status
creating Make.conf
creating config.h
+ %make
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.80724: line 46: fg: no job control
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.80724 (%build)
I suspect something different between redhat and mandrake. However,
the previous versions of mandrake rpms compiled just fine.
Looking at the rpm-tmp.80274 file, line 46 is
%make
make is indeed a good command. Is the % causing the problem???
Is this a source RPM issue, or is it Stupid User Tricks?
thanks,
wade
