I would like to build boost 1.39 on RHEL 5.3. In the past, I have been successful building boost library found in rawhide for RHEL 5.x distributions. However, I have not been susccessful building boost 1.39 using boost-1.39.0-2.fc12.src.rpm. I saw a message earlier this month that stated that boost-1.39.0-3.fc12.src.rpm had been released and wanted to see if that version would address the problems I encountered with boost-1.39.0-2.fc12.src.rpm. However, when installing the boost-1.39.0-3.fc12.src.rpm source RPM, I get the following errors:

# rpm -ivh boost-1.39.0-3.fc12.src.rpm

1:boost warning: user mockbuild does not exist - using root
warning: group mockbuild does not exist - using root
########################################### [100%]
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/boost-bitset.patch;4a646479: cpio: MD5 sum mismatch

I am wondering if the source RPM is OK or not.

This is due to a signature change in RPM from F-11.

Blatanly ripping off Mr. Gallagher's post of a few days back:

To extract sources from an SRPM:
rpm2cpio <src.rpm> | cpio --extract
(Do this in its own directory)

To enable the old checksum (for building RHEL packages):
rpmbuild -bs --define _source_filedigest_algorithm=1 <spec>

This will recreate the SRPM using an MD5 sum instead of a SHA1 sum.
