Hi,
I am probably doing something wrong with configuring, but I cannot get
make check to work with the attached patch. And even with that half of
the tests fail because for some reason there is a literal '${prefix}'
string used somewhat that cause the creation of an extra directory
tests/testing\$\{prefix\}/ next to the tests/testing one which contains
just var/lib/rpm/
I also tried with srcdir == builddir and with the latest release
4.10.3.1 instead of a git checkout and on fedora 18. But the issue
is always the same with lots of failures because something seems to
use '${prefix}' literally.
I am configuring with: --with-external-db \
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/include/nspr4 -I/usr/include/nss3 -I/usr/include/db4"
Does this ring any bell?
Indeed it does... there's an ages old flaw in the configure/make system
that causes this unless you pass an explicit --prefix or --localstatedir
to configure. Should really do something about it, just never gotten
around to it :-/
Meanwhile, the patch looks ok ("make check" still worksforme :) ->
applied, thanks.
