Re: Scwm-0.99.2 pre-release available!

Greg,

In effect, I am trying `rpm --rebuild *.src.rpm', on an MkLinux
prerelease one system.  So my system is binary compatible with
LinuxPPC R5 and YellowDog, though there may be differences in which
packages are installed.

Rebuilding works for guile-gtk-26Aug99-1gjb.src.rpm,
guile-1.3.2-1gjb.src.rpm, scwm-icons-0.99.2-1.src.rpm, and
scwm-post0.99.1-1.src.rpm -- and I can simply install all but the
last, which wants Cassowary.  Incidentally, your guile*src.rpm creates
both a guile and a guile-devel, which seems slightly odd.

What is Text-Balanced?

So far, my attempts to rebuild Cassowary have failed, and here is the
tail end of the messages from my last attempt:

make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

My naive suspicion is that this might be related to java, which I
don't otherwise use.  I have installed guavac-1.2-4, but what am I
supposed to have?


Also, I have so far been unable to rebuild GTL, but the problem may be
coming from elsewhere -- the tail end of the messages is

collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]
make[1]: *** [libGTL.la] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/GTL-0.3.1/src'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.72412 (%build)

which presumably means something wrong with ld.
