What's the failure? The whole point of f48ab7d8 is that the use of 'python-config' is optional, and should not be fatal if it is not found. Requiring it in the specfile feels like a step backwards, and probably breaks on RHEL 5, where we still want 'make rpm' to work. > > Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mpriv...@redhat.com> > --- > libvirt.spec.in | 1 + > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) > > diff --git a/libvirt.spec.in b/libvirt.spec.in > index 0959483..083612c 100644 > --- a/libvirt.spec.in > +++ b/libvirt.spec.in > @@ -424,6 +424,7 @@ BuildRequires: automake > BuildRequires: gettext-devel > BuildRequires: libtool > BuildRequires: /usr/bin/pod2man > +BuildRequires: python-devel I'm inclined to NACK this without more evidence why it is needed, in case we come up with a better way to fix the real problem. > %endif > BuildRequires: git > BuildRequires: perl > -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
