I have a couple of questions regarding openssh.spec and the rpm that gets generated from it. I am using 2.3.0p1 1. Why is openssl a prereq? openssh statically links to openssl during build by default (rightfully so, you don't want your security library a shared object if possible) 2. I don't understand the following line in the spec file during the install step (it makes it not build for

I am trying to build an RPM for Apache-2.4.7-1 on Centos-6.5-i86_64. I am using mock. The are three build dependencies that I am trying to resolve. One, mod_socache_dc / distcache, I have simply removed from the spec file. The other two are arp and apr-utils. Since httpd-2.4.7 needs arp >= 1.4 I got the two latter requirements from http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-2.4.7-deps.tar.bz2

hello list! I am attempting to build an rpm of postfix that includes support for mysql. I've done this before with earlier versions on postfix but I am staring at this spec file until my eyes bleed and I just don't see why when I build the spec with rpmbuild mysql support isn't there. After I install the rpm I have a look at the modules as such: ldd $(which postfix) | grep -i

Hello all, I'm using the attached patch. With it, if you add OPTIONS="-6" in /etc/sysconfig/sshd (this kind of sysconfig/<name> is a pretty normal RHL practice), then you can enable ipv4 and ipv6 on RHL without problems and without having to modify the init.d/sshd script. This or something like should IMO be added. Removing 'noreplace' from sshd_config

hello list, I'm trying to build a postfix rpm that has mysql support included. I've found the line where I need to define mysql support but it seems that I am being tripped up by some build dependencies: [root at beta SPECS]# rpmbuild -ba postfix.spec error: Failed build dependencies: MySQL-shared is needed by postfix-2.9.1-1.rhel5.x86_64 MySQL-devel is needed by

Hello all, There are two issues in OpenSSH RPM Red Hat spec file (against 2.2.0p1): 1. /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd uses 'success' and 'failure'. These don't work in Red Hat 5.2; else the spec file is fine. Initscripts requirement (for the one in RH60) added. 2. If you're upgrading over SSH ltd's ssh-server, the server will be stopped and sshd removed from chkconfig

Hi, I have been making an RPM of FLAC to bundle with GStreamer. In order to get it working I had to make some rather hackish solutions in the SPEC file. The flac Makefile does to build into the correct directories while creating an RPM for some reason. I have attached the SPEC file I ended up with if it is of interest. Of course it didn't help me much cause it turned up we had a bug in the

Hello all, OpenSSL 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 are incompatible, causing weird errors. I'd like to get a check for this in the RPMs. However, now I want to make sure whether anyone has experienced problems with RHL 0.9.5a OpenSSL libs vs. the 0.9.5a ones provided at openbsd.org? Ie: is it enough to check like '= 0.9.5a' or do you have to check '= 0.9.5a-xyz'. -- Pekka Savola

I've cleaned up Pekka Savola's newly revised sshd.init and additional sshd-functions and modified them to work they way i've been arguing they should work. Compatibility functions are defined in ./contrib/redhat/sshd-functions, which should get installed no matter what release of Red Hat Linux OpenSSH is getting built for, to be consistent across releases. Specific changes from

Hello, I updated the latest snapshot as RPM's to two of my systems. Basic stuff seems to be working ok. Privilege separation failed though, possibly because I didn't populate /var/empty with PAM entries. Privsep might be a bit raw in any case, at least for the portable. FWIW, I came across error message 'sshd: no user' and had to scratch my head a bit to figure out what it

Attached is a spec file for OpenSSH on SuSE 6.4 and 7.0 systems. It differs from the current spec file in the following details: - Only one rpm file is created containing client and server files. - PreReq `openssl-devel' is changed to `openssl'. - Path '/usr/libexec/ssh' is changed to '/usr/lib/ssh' for ssh-askpass and gnome-ssh-askpass. The resulting

Hi People, I have just started building my own RPMS on both Fedora and CentOS and generally things have gone well. Currently I am trying to create RPMS for some commercial software that we have purchased. Step 1 was install the software using its JAVA Based installer ensuring that all files were installed into a particular directory in /usr/local. Step 2 was create a tar file of the

The RHL 6.2 command "/etc/rc.d/init.d/crond start" prevents clean logout from compiled version of OpenSSH-2.5.1p1 on all hosts. The command "/etc/rc.d/init.d/crond stop" is OK. This occurs for interactive or command line requests. ssh remotehost /etc/rc.d/init.d/crond stop --- works every time ssh remotehost /etc/rc.d/init.d/crond start --- hangs every time Control-C will

Attached (and pasted in it entirety, although quite a few of the long lines are munched) is my rpm spec file for building the mingw cross-compiler as an rpm. It is more or less a wrapper which massages the cross-tool script and setting some of the directories in the "RPM" way and eventually everything is under /opt/mingw ; the only tricky part is telling rpm not to strip binaries. The

Hi there, I made up a very simple and generic rpm .spec.in. It's .in, so autoconf can replace the VERSION in it, so there's only one place to maintain the version number. This .spec.in is independent of any distribution and does not include any "advanced" features. It just packages the installed files up. There are two things that it does do extra: 1) create

(I'm using RedHat 6.2 and openssl-0.9.5a-3) After rebuilding binary RPMs using openssh-2.5.1p1-1.src.rpm, I was unable to ssh in to a system upgraded to the new openssh-server-2.5.1p1.rpm After the failure, /var/log/messages on the destination indicated lots of PAM errors of the form "sshd[22814]: PAM [dlerror: /lib/security/pam_stack.so: can not open shared object file: No such file

The patch below modifies the spec file for FC4 RPM builds as follows: 1.) Build binaries using the -lmcheck option; various samba commands and smbd process crash badly without; see, for example: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=164353 2.) The Fedora project's samba RPMS install mount.cifs; it would help to have samba.org's RPMS do the same. It would be nice to
