Sorry (I have cooker-ppc, cooker, cooker-firewall all together: one day of
theese I have to split them).
However now I have a question: does exist a jre (and a sdk) for pcc archs ?


Thanks,

Me. It seems to work great. Just recompile it using gcc2.96 if you want
java enabled.

It is strange: I agree with you. But I am sure. It happened Friday... but
let's try again the same steps: maybe I am in error...

[root@serverg3 SRPMS]# wget ftp://ftp.ciril.fr/pub2/linux/mandrake-
devel/cooker/SRPMS/kernel-2.4.17.13mdk-1-1mdk.src.rpm

[root@serverg3 SRPMS]# rpm -v
RPM version 4.0.3

[root@serverg3 SRPMS]# rpm --rebuild kernel-2.4.17.13mdk-1-1mdk.src.rpm
Installing kernel-2.4.17.13mdk-1-1mdk.src.rpm
error: parse error in expression
error: /usr/src/RPM/SPECS/kernel-2.4.spec:1229: parseExpressionBoolean
returns -1

[root@serverg3 SRPMS]# vi ../SPECS/kernel.spec

1229 %if %build_BOOT
1230 CreateKernel BOOT
1231 %endif

So I edited it in line 1229:

1229 #%if %build_BOOT
1230 #CreateKernel BOOT
1231 #%endif

Let's try again:

[root@serverg3 SRPMS]# rpm -bb ../SPECS/kernel-2.4.spec
error: parse error in expression
error: /usr/src/RPM/SPECS/kernel-2.4.spec:1632: parseExpressionBoolean
returns -1

[root@serverg3 SRPMS]# vi ../SPECS/kernel.spec

1632 %if %build_BOOT
1633 %files -n kernel-BOOT-%{mdkversion}
1634 %defattr(-,root,root)
1635 %{_bootdir}/config-%{KVERREL}BOOT
1636 %{_bootdir}/vmlinuz-%{KVERREL}BOOT
1637 %{_bootdir}/System.map-%{KVERREL}BOOT
1638 %dir %{_modulesdir}/%{KVERREL}BOOT/
1639 %{_modulesdir}/%{KVERREL}BOOT/kernel

1641 %{_modulesdir}/%{KVERREL}BOOT/pcmcia
1642 %{_modulesdir}/%{KVERREL}BOOT/modules.*
1643 %endif

If I comment theese line too the rebuild works perfectly without errors; so
my memory is still good ;)

That's true.
