So, after a quick rush through the documentation and modifying the
spec file to show version: 1.3.0 and release: centos4.2 I tried to
build the subversion package using:
> rpmbuild -ba subversion.spec
and I got this:
> error: Failed build dependencies:
> apr-devel >= 0.9.5 is needed by
> subversion-1.3.0-centos4.2.i386 apr-util-devel >= 0.9.5 is
> needed by subversion-1.3.0-centos4.2.i386
So, since this software is working on my system and since centos
seems to backport the essentials I made the leap that apr-0.9.4 was
good enough. I went in and altered the spec file again to set the
minimum version of apr down to 0.9.5. Now I get:
> rpmbuild -ba subversion.spec
> ...
> configure: Apache Portable Runtime (APR) library configuration
> checking for APR... yes
> checking APR version... 0.9.4
> wanted regex is 0\.9\.[5-9] or 1\.
> configure: error: invalid apr version found
> error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.51580 (%prep)
So, I was wrong. Is there some easy way to fix this short of
installing apr-0.9.5 over 0.9.4?
Digest subscriber, direct copies of any replies appreciated.
