Cool ... thanks
Seems to be a problem with the src rpm. Several attempts at rpm
--rebuild and it stalls out shortly after the compiling..
[...]
gcc -O2 -m486 -fno-strength-reduce -o rsync rsync.o [...]
+ strip rsync
+ exit 0
Executing(%install): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.43344
+ umask 022
+ cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD
+ cd rsync-2.4.6
+ mkdir -p /tmp/rsync/usr/bin /tmp/rsync/usr/man/man1 /tmp/rsync/usr/man/man5
+ install -m755 rsync /tmp/rsync/usr/bin
+ install -m644 rsync.1 /tmp/rsync/usr/man/man1
+ install -m644 rsyncd.conf.5 /tmp/rsync/usr/man/man5
+ /usr/lib/rpm/brp-compress
At this point the process stalls indefinitely. After several minutes
of inactivity sending a SIGINT gives this feedback:
^C
# + /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip
+ /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip-comment-note
Where it stalls interminably again...
Another SIGINT to get the prompt back.
It left 143 files in the build area.
Didn't see anything resembling error messages
On a final attemp to rebuild, the process completed with exit code 0 which
is supposed to indicate a successful build but nothing was actually
built. No rpm in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS.
The completed build added this to the above output:
+ /usr/lib/rpm/brp-compress
+ /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip
+ /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip-comment-note
Processing files: rsync-2.4.6-1
File not found: /tmp/rsync/usr/man/man1/rsync.1
File not found: /tmp/rsync/usr/man/man5/rsyncd.conf.5
Executing(%doc): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.45967
+ umask 022
+ cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD
+ cd rsync-2.4.6
+ DOCDIR=/tmp/rsync/usr/doc/rsync-2.4.6
+ export DOCDIR
+ rm -rf /tmp/rsync/usr/doc/rsync-2.4.6

+ cp -pr README /tmp/rsync/usr/doc/rsync-2.4.6
+ cp -pr COPYING /tmp/rsync/usr/doc/rsync-2.4.6
+ exit 0
But no binary...
find /usr/src/redhat -name '*.rpm'
nada
rpm -q rsync:
rsync-2.4.1-2
Same old one.
Again a large pile of files left in build area:
find /usr/src/redhat -type f|grep rsync|wc -l
143
I don't know much about spec files but this one didn't look real complex.
