GCC 4.5 Packaging - Stage 2 - Semi Successfull

So after 54mins of building with my J value at 8 (refer to my old post about J value).
I have somewhat made some progress.

Here is the message I get at the end.

Processing files: gcc-debuginfo-4.5-1.fc12.x86_64

+ exit 0

It created the RPM files I wanted without a hitch, but I still face some warnings & alerts.

1. I received warnings of duplicate files below are some examples of the warning:

warning: File listed twice: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
warning: File listed twice: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.6.0
warning: File listed twice: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.6.0/crtbegin.o

2. I'm down to 1 rpath error, but with my 32bit build I did not get any errors

WARNING 0020: file '/usr/bin/gij' contains an rpath referencing '..' of an absolute path [/usr/lib/../lib64/gcj-4.6.0-11]

Its a step to the right direction.

3. Still getting those annoying cpio alerts, examples as follows

cpio: gcc-4.5/host-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc/cfns.gperf: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
cpio: gcc-4.5/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/gnu/java/locale/LocaleData.java: Cannot stat: No such file or directory

cpio: gcc-4.5/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/libjava/com/sun/javadoc/ExecutableMemberDoc.java: Cannot stat: No such file or directory

I later performed an rpmlint on my spec, source rpm file and rpm file. Below are the results that came back from rpmlint

SPEC file only came back with 2 warnings so its a good sign

[bchao@ireland SPECS]$ rpmlint gcc4.5.spec
gcc4.5.spec:48: W: configure-without-libdir-spec
gcc4.5.spec: W: invalid-url Source0: http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/DXR/gcc/x86_64/gcc4.5.tar HTTP Error 403: Forbidden
0 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 2 warnings.

The source rpm, came back with 1 error and 2 warnings

[bchao@ireland SRPMS]$ rpmlint gcc-4.5-1.fc12.src.rpm
gcc.src: E: invalid-spec-name
gcc.src:48: W: configure-without-libdir-spec
gcc.src: W: invalid-url Source0: http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/DXR/gcc/x86_64/gcc4.5.tar HTTP Error 403: Forbidden
1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 1 errors, 2 warnings.

My rpm file, and came back with this result.

1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 149 errors, 4524 warnings.

Looks like I got a lot more work to do, but at least I made some progress. LaterI will provide my results from the 32 architecture build next time I go to work.


For now you can grab these rpm files here, all the other files I used here, and my build log and config log.

Just an update, second attempt with distcc was not successful as well.
