New Approach - Packaging GCC 4.5

So today, I tried another approach because to see

So I grabbed the rawhide 4.4.3 spec file and modified it a little, by disabling some patches that were not necessary.

Here is the modified spec file

The first time I ran it, this is the error I received:

So I did some search and found this site, I followed the instructions on the site. Problem is the package it is referring to does not exist.

So I did a yum list glibc-devel.* and found this as the substitute glibc-devel.i686

Now I installed that, and this is the new error I encountered

I went on the #fedora-devel channel on the usual irc.freenode.net server hoping someone can provide me some insight, but no one has responded to my inquiries.

Also must be noted, on my previous builds with my temp spec file, my build times were about 1hour before it fails, now it won't go past 15 mins.

Hopefully I can solve this soon.

Here is the output from the build.

This is the syntax I used to make the output file

rpmbuild -ba gcc4.5.spec.bak 2>&1 | tee output.txt
This allows me to get standard error output and regular output into one file.
