Description Phil Richards 2003-03-07 03:05:25 UTC

Trying to install rpm-4.2, got the following build failure:

!!! (no error message)

All the errors are caused (as far as I can tell) by the lack of the
header files.  Its complaint is valid: there are no such headers
anywhere under /usr, or in the distribution itself.  Obviously I can't
tell which package used to provide them (if they ever did)...

Comment 3 Paul Giordano 2003-03-07 05:22:55 UTC

rpm 4.2 requires elfutils for those header files.

Comment 4 Stefan Jones (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

Many thanks, added elfutils to the DEPEND line.
That should fix the error.

Closing bug.
