Category: Distutils Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Jeff Epler (jepler) Assigned to: Anthony Baxter (anthonybaxter) Summary: bdist_rpm fails on redhat9, fc1, fc2 Initial Comment: distutils bdist_rpm has long been broken for recent versions of RPM (RedHat 9, Fedora Core 1 and 2) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=88616 When an RPM contains an executable or shared library, a "-debuginfo" rpm is generated. For instance, the following two packages would be generated: foo-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm foo-debuginfo-1.0.0.1-i386.rpm When distutils is faced with this problem, it prints an error like AssertionError: unexpected number of RPM files found: ['build/bdist.linux-i686/rpm/RPMS/i386/foo-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm', build/bdist.linux-i686/rpm/RPMS/i386/foo-debuginfo-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm'] The bugzilla bug contains a proposed patch, but redhat/fedora developers chose not to accept it for their own build of Python. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Mihai Ibanescu (misa) Date: 2006-07-16 22:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=205865 Please see patch 1060577 for a more general approach that should let people build multiple rpms out of a spec file. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=1060577&group_id=5470&atid=305470 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Anthony Baxter (anthonybaxter) Date: 2004-06-11 13:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=29957 Applied to trunk. Will backport to the 2.3 branch. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jeff Epler (jepler) Date: 2004-05-21 07:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=2772 the "WONTFIX" closure of bugzilla 88616 was already from Fedora days (2004-04-05), so opening a new bug report is unlikely to do much on its own. (in fact, I don't know if it's likely to do more than get closed as a duplicate) Of course, I don't speak for Fedora. If a fix for this new RPM feature is included in Python (for 2.3.5 and 2.4) then I'd guess it's more likely to be added as a patch for a subsequent 2.3.3 or 2.3.4-based Python package, but again I don't speak for the Fedora developers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jeremy Sanders (jeremysanders) Date: 2004-05-21 04:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=8953 I've opened a bugzilla report for fedora 2 See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=123598 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=957381&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
