i'm not sure if this question is too package-specific for this list, but i'll take my chances. for the sake of building "openwrt" on my f8 system, i installed the "sdcc" (small device c compiler) package. and yet, when i try to build openwrt, i get: ... Checking 'sdcc'... failed. firmwarehotplug: firmwarehotplug requires the SDCC Cross Compiler (sdcc). ... a quick check of the pre-built tarballs at sdcc.sourceforge.net shows that the binaries have names like sdcc, sdcpp and so on. but note the names in the fedora package as installed by yum: $ rpm -ql sdcc | grep bin /usr/bin/sdcc-as-gbz80 /usr/bin/sdcc-as-hc08 /usr/bin/sdcc-as-z80 /usr/bin/sdcc-aslink /usr/bin/sdcc-asx8051 /usr/bin/sdcc-link-gbz80 /usr/bin/sdcc-link-hc08 /usr/bin/sdcc-link-z80 /usr/bin/sdcc-makebin /usr/bin/sdcc-packihx /usr/bin/sdcc-s51 /usr/bin/sdcc-savr /usr/bin/sdcc-sdcc ... note the additional "sdcc-" prefix that's clearly(?) been added for the sake of fedora packaging. i'm not sure if this was done to avoid some sort of name conflict, but it obviously causes the openwrt build error. is this kind of transformation relatively common? the build from the sdcc home page itself uses the regular names, so why is the fedora packaging rewriting those? does this happen often? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
