Building on xUbuntu_6.06 fails for me with: expansion error: have choice for awk needed by base-files: mawk gawk Is this a problem with my .dsc (Project net-snmp, package net-snmp-main-snapshot) or a BS bug? +Thomas -- Thomas Anders (thomas.anders at blue-cable.de) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

it is not a bug at least. You can either reqeuest mawk or gawk directly, instead of awk in your .dsc file. But we can also configure xUbuntu to prefer on. Does it make sense to prefer gawk by default ? bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: adrian@suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

I think so. Isn't Debian_Etch configured the same way already? +Thomas -- Thomas Anders (thomas.anders at blue-cable.de) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

Maybe the error message could state more clearly. Marian --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

What kind of a message would you expect ? -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: adrian@suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

I'm not convinced there's anything bad with requiring just "awk" in the package, so I think the default xUbuntu setup should prefer one choice itself. +Thomas -- Thomas Anders (thomas.anders at blue-cable.de) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
