Hi,
it looks like the Fedora 23 repository has some differences to the rest of the repositories I am building against. There missing debug files in a project get reported as an error and building stops:
error: Empty %files file /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/gnustep-make-2.6.7/debugfiles.list
On all other repositories this only gets reported as a warning.
Some background, the gnustep-make package (https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:GNUstep/gnustep-make) is actually a noarch package, but we cannot build it as such, as this also provides the folder structure for the rest of the GNUstep packages and here we either build up a folder hierarchy in /usr/lib or in /usr/lib64 depending on the architecture. This means we have a package that is not flagged as "noarch" but it doesn't include actual executables and for that reason no debug information files. This never caused any problems until I added Fedora 23 support this week.
Is there a way to work around this (eg not to create the debug package?) or would it be possible to bring the behaviour of Fedora 23 in line with the rest of the repositories?
Cheers, Fred
This issue comes from a change in behavior from RPM 4.13. It'll propagate into OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and other distros soon enough. If you want to tell it to not generate debug information, add the following to your spec: %global debug_package %{nil} This will tell _every_ distribution target capable of generating debuginfo packages to not do so. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
