Hi,
I appologize if this is not the right place to post this, but searching
through the old archives, I ran across the same issue from 3 years ago, but
I cannot find the resolution to it.
Currently, I am trying to build the python2.4 SRPM from Python.org on a
CentOS4.6_x64 platform, but the build is failing with a very non-descript
error message.
....
+ cd /var/tmp/python2.4-2.4-root/usr/bin
+ mv -f pydoc pydoc2.4
+ cd /var/tmp/python2.4-2.4-root/usr/bin
+ mv -f idle idle2.4
+ echo '#!/bin/bash'
+ echo 'exec /usr/bin/python2.4 /usr/lib64/python2.4/idlelib/idle.py'
+ chmod 755 /var/tmp/python2.4-2.4-root/usr/bin/idle2.4
+ cp -a Tools /var/tmp/python2.4-2.4-root/usr/lib64/python2.4
+ rm -f mainpkg.files
+ find /var/tmp/python2.4-2.4-root/usr/lib64/python2.4/lib-dynload -type f
+ sed 's|^/var/tmp/python2.4-2.4-root|/|'
+ grep -v -e '_tkinter.so$'
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.55639 (%install)
RPM build errors:
user jafo does not exist - using root
group jafo does not exist - using root
user jafo does not exist - using root
group jafo does not exist - using root
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.55639 (%install)
The old post I found about this can be found here:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-bugs-list/2005-October/030670.html
I checked the var/tmp/python2.4-2.4-root/usr/lib64 directories and see
plenty of files in there, but not sure what I should be looking for.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Am not sure what to be looking
for in order to get this to work.
Thanks!
Eric
