That's looking for the tarball in the wrong place.

I run it just fine out of a checked-out git repo, and it doesn't require installation; on the other hand, making it palatable for a proper FHS-compliant distro package would require a fair bit of restructuring beyond just the packaging scripts. And... I honestly have no idea how the Makepkgs stuff is supposed to work. I've never been a fan of upstream containing packaging bits anyway; different distros have different requirements, and the Makepkgs script has always seemed weird. RPM/specfiles are supposed to drive the build - the build isn't supposed to drive rpm. I think it'd be best to make a distro-specific specfile which knows how to handle an xfstests tarball. Trying to reverse engineer Makepkgs doesn't sound fun to me; rpmbuild knows how to do this stuff. Dropping a generic RPM specfile into the top level dir would probably be enough to get it off the ground even if it doesn't conform to any particular distro's packaging rules. I think it's up to those who want rpms to dig into this, for now. Dumping all files into /opt/xfstests is probably simplest, since FHS-compliance is probably a long ways off. -Eric _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
