https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=334207 Summary: zypper source-install doesn't follow BuildRequires Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: dmacvicar@novell.com ReportedBy: aspiers@novell.com QAContact: dmacvicar@novell.com Found By: Field Engineer I did a zypper source-install of kdebase3, and it happily installed the sources and .spec file. However, it didn't give me the option to follow the build-time dependencies specified via the BuildRequires directive: BuildRequires: OpenEXR-devel cups-devel db-devel doxygen fdupes graphviz hal-devel kdelibs3-devel krb5-devel libsmbclient libsmbclient-devel mDNSResponder-devel openldap2 openldap2-devel openmotif openmotif-devel openslp-devel openssh pam-devel pcsc-lite qt3-devel-doc samba-client utempter xorg-x11 so I had to manually install a load of -devel rpms before rpmbuild -bp kdebase3.spec would work. I think it's important that if following source dependencies is implemented, it be made optional, preferably by prompting each time source-install is invoked. This is because sometimes source rpms will be installed simply to look at the source, in which case build dependencies are probably not needed, and other times they will be installed to do an actual build. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
