In regard to: first time building an RPM, don't understand a particular...:
My problem is that, when I try to install my RPM on a target system using rpm -Uvh nnn.rpm I get the following errors: pkgconfig(gstreamer-0.10) is needed by gstreamer-plugins-bad-0.10.20-1.gst.i686 pkgconfig(gstreamer-base-0.10) is needed by gstreamer-plugins-bad-0.10.20-1.gst.i686 Other dependency errors I figured out and fixed, but not these. The RPM I am building is not for developers, simply users, so I am perplexed why pkgconfig is involved. There is a gstreamer-0.10.pc file (but not in this RPM and not on the target systems), but I think that it is used for building, not simply using the libraries, so it seems to me that it shouldn't be needed.
Does the package you built include gst-feedback or gst-feedback-0.10? One of those may be a script that calls pkgconfig to lookup non-build settings about how gstreamer is configured on your system. For example: $ pkg-config gstreamer-0.10 --variable pluginsdir /local/gnu/lib/64/gstreamer-0.10 Tim -- Tim Mooney Tim.Mooney@xxxxxxxx Enterprise Computing & Infrastructure 701-231-1076 (Voice) Room 242-J6, IACC Building 701-231-8541 (Fax) North Dakota State University, Fargo, ND 58105-5164 _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
