Hi,
now, building network-manager-applet(fc28) on Fedora 27, it fails:
Full log written to /data/src/fedpkg/network-manager-applet/network-
manager-applet-1.8.10/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu/meson-logs/testlog.txt
+ %ldconfig_scriptlets -n libnma
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.YVXizL: line 40: fg: no job control
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.YVXizL (%check)
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.YVXizL (%check)
This doesn't seem right. Can we fix this? It seems very convenient to
be able to build a package for f28 across various Fedora versions,
because that is how I test the package...
See https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/network-manager-applet/c/d6f6981153e4bc1512c0d45d34ca23b4624e4d90?branch=master
best,
Thomas
