== The requires section throws an error ==
I'm trying to package python-zope-html. Since it requires a lot of non-standard perl dependencies which rpmbuild generates, I used the external method of using filter-provides and filter-requires file.
In my spec file, the changes go like this:
<pre>Source98: filter-provides.sh
Source99: filter-requires.sh
%global __perl_provides %{SOURCE98}
%global __perl_requires %{SOURCE99}</pre>
as suggested by this guide and the contents of the filter-provides file is:
<pre>#!/bin/sh
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.prov $* | sed -e '/perl(CGI)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.prov $* | sed -e '/perl(File::Temp)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.prov $* | sed -e '/perl(basexml.pl)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.prov $* | sed -e '/perl(commands.pl)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.prov $* | sed -e '/perl(config.pl)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.prov $* | sed -e '/perl(io.pl)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.prov $* | sed -e '/perl(upload_fck.pl)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.prov $* | sed -e '/perl(util.pl)/d'</pre>
and that for filter-requires file:
<pre>#!/bin/sh
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.req $* | sed -e '/perl(CGI)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.req $* | sed -e '/perl(File::Temp)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.req $* | sed -e '/perl(basexml.pl)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.req $* | sed -e '/perl(commands.pl)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.req $* | sed -e '/perl(config.pl)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.req $* | sed -e '/perl(io.pl)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.req $* | sed -e '/perl(upload_fck.pl)/d'
/usr/lib/rpm/perl.req $* | sed -e '/perl(util.pl)/d'</pre>
But when I build the spec file (rpmbuild -ba python-zope-html.spec), I get following error:
<pre>error: Couldn't exec /home/aks/rpmbuild/SOURCES/filter-requires.sh: Permission denied
getOutputFrom(): Broken pipe</pre>
After I do chmod +x ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/filter-*.sh, rpmbuild succeeds but unable to remove those perl dependencies. The difference between building the same spec file in F13 and F9 is that on F13, though creating a warning, it builds the package and removes those dependencies, but on F9 it just throws an error and quits. Any Solution for this?

The following metadata was found in MoinMoin that could not be converted to a useful value in MediaWiki:

  • : hostname inside mock.

Filter requires and provides in %setup section instead of %prep?

For me the suggested method of filtering requires and provides didn't work until I put the code into the %setup section of the SPEC file, not %prep. Shouldn't this be changed?

Protected page needs a minor edit

Section 9 as it's currently labeled has "inital-cc" instead of "initial-cc", right in the header. Hopefully, it'll be fixed before anyone uses the anchor link, which will change when corrected. -- J. Randall Owens 12:50, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

%{_docdir} specific req/prov filtering

Note it's possible to just get rpm to ignore everything under %{_docdir} by using filtering constructs in %prep such as: 

# make sure doc/tests don't generate provides
# note we first filter out the bits in _docdir...
cat << \EOF > %{name}-prov
#!/bin/sh
%{__perl_provides} `perl -p -e 's|\S+%{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}\S+||'`
EOF

%define __perl_provides %{_builddir}/Catalyst-Plugin-Authentication-%{version}/%{name}-prov
chmod +x %{__perl_provides}

cat << \EOF > %{name}-req
#!/bin/sh
%{__perl_requires} `perl -p -e 's|\S+%{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}\S+||'`
EOF

%define __perl_requires %{_builddir}/Catalyst-Plugin-Authentication-%{version}/%{name}-req
chmod +x %{__perl_requires}

need to fix the line to use in the spec - moin translation error ?

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Perl#Core_modules_as_buildrequires

The < code > bits probably were ' single quotes:

Requires: perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_%(eval "%{__perl} -V:version"; echo $version))

Add to category Perl?

Can we include a 

[[Category:Perl]]

on the page somewhere, to flag it as being part of the Perl category?

-- I agree, that would be very useful. --Alexlan 23:33, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

perl-sig as CC ?

Hi,

Trying to add a CC of perl-sig or perl-sig@fedoraproject.org then this is never recognized by bugzilla as bugzilla account?
