How do I require a version range? E.g. I need lua 5.2.x I tried:
BuildRequires: Lua(devel) >= 5.2, Lua(devel) < 5.3
But this will fail with a "Have choice" error, so rpm / buildservice finds lua 5.1 and lua 5.2 for BuildRequire " Lua(devel) < 5.3". So it does not combine the two statements.
I would go this way:
BuildRequires: lua >= 5.2 Conflicts: lua <5.2
I'm afraid that doesn't match Ferdinand's goal - he was asking for 5.2.x and wants to exclude 5.3 or newer. (No idea why he doesn't want 5.3, but that's a different topic.) Basically I see two ways: a) use two BuildRequires: BuildRequires: Lua(devel) >= 5.2 BuildRequires: Lua(devel) < 5.3 b) check if one of the --provides of lua-devel contains something useful: # rpm -q lua-devel lua-devel-5.3.1-3.2.x86_64 # rpm -q --provides lua-devel Lua(devel) = 5.3 config(lua-devel) = 5.3.1-3.2 lua-devel = 5.3.1-3.2 lua-devel(x86-64) = 5.3.1-3.2 pkgconfig(lua) = 5.3.1 So at least for 5.3.1, it seems "Lua(devel)" doesn't include the .1, so you can probably just use BuildRequires: Lua(devel) = 5.2 (check rpm -q --provides of the 5.2.x lua-devel to be really sure) Regards, Christian Boltz -- "Anybody who really thinks /bin/true should report a version number and a help string (or even a copyright notice) needs to get his head examined."
