This is from a bug that was reported to me: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=433433#c4 + /usr/lib/rpm/check-rpaths /usr/lib/rpm/check-buildroot xargs: xargs.c:443: main: Assertion `bc_ctl.arg_max <= (131072-2048)' failed. /usr/lib/rpm/check-rpaths: line 28: 4618 Done find "$RPM_BUILD_ROOT" -type f -print0 4619 Aborted | xargs -0r /usr/lib/rpm/check-rpaths-worker error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.92606 (%install) I can't reproduce this on my machine, but looking at the source for xargs it looks like the error originates in this check: { /* IEEE Std 1003.1, 2003 specifies that the combined argument and * environment list shall not exceed {ARG_MAX}-2048 bytes. It also * specifies that it shall be at least LINE_MAX. */ #if defined(ARG_MAX) assert(bc_ctl.arg_max <= bc_ctl.posix_arg_size_max); #endif #ifdef LINE_MAX assert(bc_ctl.arg_max >= LINE_MAX); #endif Perhaps the environment is too large or check-rpaths is producing a really long list of files (but surely the precise point of xargs is to deal with that?) Anyone got any ideas? Rich. -- Richard Jones, Emerging Technologies, Red Hat http://et.redhat.com/~rjones virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines.
