[jira] [Commented] (ZOOKEEPER-1210) Can't build ZooKeeper RPM

["Tadeusz Andrzej Kadłubowski (Commented JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-1210?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13117244#comment-13117244 ] 

Tadeusz Andrzej Kadłubowski commented on ZOOKEEPER-1210:
--------------------------------------------------------

I debugged this issue somewhat.

The support for the Buildroot directive in the RPM spec files got removed in rpm 4.6.0 (AFAICT).

The spec files created in the ZOOKEEPER-999 issue define Buildroot: %{_build_dir}, which is silently ignored on systems that use rpm >= 4.6. These include Fedora >= 10 and RHEL >=6.0

One solution for this issue might be to pass "--buildroot=${package.buildroot}/BUILD" to the "rpm" ant task. "--buildroot" option is supported by both old and new rpmbuild versions.

> I was trying to build the zookeeper RPM (basically, `ant rpm -Dskip.contrib=1`), using build scripts that were recently merged from the work on the ZOOKEEPER-999 issue.
> The final stage, i.e. running rpmbuild failed. From what I understand it mixed BUILD and BUILDROOT subdirectories in /tmp/zookeeper_package_build_tkadlubo/, leaving BUILDROOT empty, and placing everything in BUILD.
> The full build log is at http://pastebin.com/0ZvUAKJt (Caution: I cut out long file listings from running tar -xvvf).
