>Now the question is do you really want rpmbuild to automatically pull in >requirements on executables that are used solely in if [ ] shell logic? The requirements should be augmented, not replaced by. Using your example on my RH9 machine: ./sh2rpms /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc 2>/dev/null grep-2.5.1-7.8 XFree86-4.3.0-2.90.55 XFree86-tools-4.3.0-2.90.55 Ok, there's 3 packages named. The package in question is: rpm -qf /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc xinitrc-3.32-1 So lets see what the requirements are: rpmquery --requires xinitrc-3.32-1 /bin/bash /bin/bash /bin/sh /bin/sh XFree86 config(xinitrc) = 3.32-1 rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1 switchdesk >= 3.7 Looks like we have found 2 additional/supplemental requirements not stated. >I really don't think the --rpm-requires parsing is robust enough to >automate this for all possible completely valid shellscript logic that >a script on the system would need to employ. I think I said that. Problem #2 needs tightening up to truely trust it. >This is surely a useful tool to some extent to review for QA and bugreporting. Right. In the absence of being able to automate it, I hope some people use it to better document the runtime requirements. -Steve Grubb __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
