I am currently reviewing toped : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208200 In the review process, I checked the binary rpm rebuilt by rpmlint as "rpmlint toped-0.8.1-1.fc6.i386.rpm", and the result was clean. However, once I install toped and try "rpmlint toped", I get lots of "undefined non-weak symbol" complaint like: W: toped undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libtpd_common.so.0.0.0 wxEVT_LOG_ERRMESSAGE W: toped undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libtpd_common.so.0.0.0 CmdList W: toped undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libtpd_common.so.0.0.0 wxEVT_FUNC_BROWSER W: toped undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libtpd_DB.so.0.0.0 Properties W: toped undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libtpd_DB.so.0.0.0 _ZNK5DBboxmlERK3CTM W: toped undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libtpd_DB.so.0.0.0 _ZN8SGBitSetD1Ev W: toped undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libtpd_DB.so.0.0.0 _ZN9polycross11segmentlistD1Ev ............................ So my question is: A. why is these complaints suppressed by "rpmlint ***.i386.rpm" ? Is this a default of rpmlint?
There are some checks that can only be done on installed packages. This is one of them. The complaints are not suppressed when you run rpmlint against the rpm package file, they are simply not checked for.
You may be able to fix the problems by linking against the libraries that provide these symbols.
