Comment 4 Joseph Wang 2012-09-08 10:03:03 CEST

spec and patch files attached the one patch obsoletes the 2.8.7 one

there is another patch in 2.8.7 that I removed because upstream had fixed the issue

Comment 5 Barry Jackson 2012-10-09 02:25:43 CEST

Thanks Joseph for your efforts.
I have committed a new version, however it fails to build in i586.
The x86_64 version is fine. If you have any ideas please let me know.

The BS log for i586 is here:-
http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/uploads/failure/cauldron/core/release/20121008232719.barjac.valstar.1202/log/botcmd.1349738896.ecosse.log

For comparison my local iurt build of x86_64 is here:-
http://mtf.no-ip.co.uk/pub/linux/barjac/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/log/lynx-2.8.8-0.dev.8.mga3.src.rpm/build.0.20121008235020.log

The current svn is here:-

Comment 6 Barry Jackson 2012-10-09 10:52:39 CEST

I have tried going back to dev.3 and also non-parallel build.
Same error.

Comment 7 Joseph Wang 2012-10-09 11:14:44 CEST

I can't see any obvious problems.  

I'm trying to do a local cross-compiler i586 build, but I don't know how to set up rpmbuild to do that.

Comment 8 Barry Jackson 2012-10-09 11:53:17 CEST

I use iurt - the same way the BS does it with a local mirror. It creates a clean chroot and installs a base system plus the BuildRequires.
You don't *have* to use a local mirror though to use iurt, there is urpmi-proxy which keeps a local copy of just what you use. I have never tried it but many use it regularly.
Are you on irc? #mageia-mentoring ?

Comment 9 Barry Jackson 2012-10-09 16:04:20 CEST

I just realized that I had the wrong source tarball - I have now uploaded the dev.14 version and switched back to your original config.patch (I wondered why it didn't apply).

Bad news is that it will still only build in x86_64, which runs fine.
Still the same build error in i586:-
