Attachments:	Patch adding dbus-devel BuildRequire for building systemd inhibit plugin

Description Neal Gompa 2015-10-13 06:11:20 CEST

Description of problem:
The systemd-inhibit plugin for RPM (which prevents system shutdown during RPM transactions) was not previously built, due to a missing built-time requirement for dbus-devel. The attached patch corrects this issue.

Without this plugin, it's possible for a service or a user to shutdown/reboot the system during an RPM transaction.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.13.0-0.rc1.11.mga6

Reproducible:

That's not critical: it has always been like this.
Of course, it's better to enable this new feature, so I'll do.
Thanks for the report

No problem, I thought it was supposed to be built and it was somehow forgotten, that's why I thought it was critical.

Comment 4 Neal Gompa 2015-10-13 17:58:00 CEST

I only found out because DNF listed it as a requirement, and I saw that the rpm package didn't include the plugin.

Comment 5 Thierry Vignaud 2015-10-13 21:43:27 CEST

Fixed in SVN.
I won't rebuild rpm just for that

Status: ASSIGNED => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED

Comment 6 Neal Gompa 2015-10-13 21:45:41 CEST

I don't expect you to, but having the fix in place will mean that when rpm 4.13.0 final comes out, the plugin will come with it.
