I am trying to build Ruby 1.8.7 on a RHEL 5 system following the instructions in that thread and I have a few questions as I am a n00b to RPM building: On Jan 4, 2012, at 8:04 PM, Jo Rhett wrote: > wget http://rbel.frameos.org/stable/el5/SRPMS/ruby-1.8.7.352-5.el5.src.rpm > rpm -i ruby-1.8.7.352-5.el5.src.rpm > rpmbuild -ba ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/ruby.spec > > For any of the nodes, you need only put this RPM in your repository and have > Puppet upgrade them. It just works ;-) When I ran the rpmbuild command, I got no RPM's. I got a bunch of error complaining about "rpaths", and in the output was a suggestion to prepend an environment setting to the command -- like this: QA_RPATHS=$[ 0x0001|0x0010 ] rpmbuild -ba ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/ruby.spec When I ran this, the previous errors were now warnings, and I got a set of RPM's. Is this The Way It Works ? Is it possible to eliminate the errors/warnings ? Would a link to a PatchBin of the build output help ?
