Getting File not found error when building

English Open Build Service (OBS)
#1

Hey guys,

I am building a library, but OBS keeps saying file not found, can somebody tell me whan I have wrong here:

On my %install section of the spec file I have:

*** not the real file name ***

%install
%{__make} install DESTDIR=%{buildroot}
install -D -m 0755 library.a %{buildroot}/%{_lib}/library.a

And on my %files I have this:

%files
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{buildroot}/%{_lib}/library.a

Error I’m getting:

   87s] + install -D -m 0755 library.a /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/library-version.x86_64/lib64/library.a
   87s] install: cannot stat 'library.a': No such file or directory

Thanks,

Hi
So does library.a exist in the top part of build? It’s not down in say
a src directory? Are you building locally first with osc, if so browse
to your build-root, or run osc lbl less to see where it’s at during
%install.

Plus %{__make} is deprecated, use %makeinstall or %make_install as
DESTDIR is defined in these rpm macros as %{buildroot}

All the files exist, not just .a, but also .so .lo, etc. I have also tried %makeinstall as per Adrian, but I still get the same error.

Hi
I’m guessing your building locally? If so, go to your buildroot
->home/abuild/BUILD and look down in there for library.a to see where
it is.

Else, is it on OBS?, if so can you provide the link to the
project/package.

The closest I’ve gotten is when I get this:

library-version.noarch.rpm: directories not owned by a package:

What do I have to put in %files?

Right now I have /usr/lib/library.a, so, etc.

But when I put %{buildroot}/%{_lib}/library.a, so, etc. I get the not found I said before.

Hi
You need to use %dir in the %files section, start with the deepest and
then work back, in your case it’s probably;


%dir %{_lib}

I found that the files are in src/.libs , so I changed my %files to have

/src/.libs/
and
/.libs

Before the file names, but it still says file not found, even though the path it shows me should be correct:

/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/library-version.x86_64/src/.libs/file.a or .so, etc
and
/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/library-version.x86_64/.libs/file.a or .so, etc

I also want to say that higher in the log I can see it does go to that folder as .libs/filename.o so the folder does exist and files are there, also %dir gives me nothing.

Hi
So you should be able to run;


%install
install -Dm0644 src/.libs/file.a %{buildroot}%{_lib}/file.a

And no, your %files should be;


%files
%defattr(-,root,root)
%{_lib}/file.a

I tried that but I still get

install: cannot stat 'src/.libs/library.*': No such file or directory

Any other ideas?

#10

Never mind, the file(s) is says it cannot find are not in src/.libs but in src, so I guess it’s going to work this time.

#11

Now I’m back to my previous error:

error: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:

/usr/lib/library/*.*

What can I do with this error?

Hi
Can you push the package up onto OBS so I can see what’s happening?

It’s there now, I didn’t want to put it there because I don’t have permission from the developers, but since this is just a test, you can find it at https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:jfha73/libaacs, please check it out and tell me what I have wrong or missing so I can ask for permission from the developers and leave it there for the public.

Hi
Here is the error;


/%{_include}/libaacs/aacs-version.h
/%{_include}/libaacs/aacs.h
/%{_include}/libaacs/filesystem.h

For a start get rid on the leading /, the macro is %{_includedir} not
include.

You can see the error in the buildlog;


   83s] + install -D -m 0755 src/libaacs/aacs-version.h '/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/libaacs-0.7.0-3.1.x86_64/%{_include}/libaacs/aacs-version.h'
   83s] + install -D -m 0755 src/libaacs/aacs.h '/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/libaacs-0.7.0-3.1.x86_64/%{_include}/libaacs/aacs.h'
   83s] + install -D -m 0755 src/file/filesystem.h '/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/libaacs-0.7.0-3.1.x86_64/%{_include}/libaacs/filesystem.h'

OBS will show all the files not packaged even if it’s only one of the
files… it’s a quirk you need to watch for.

Also you don’t need la files, these can be deleted;


find %{buildroot}%{_lib} -name '*.la' -type f -delete -print

Do you really need the static libs? If not the add --enable-static=no
to you configure command and just use make rather than %{__make} this
is deprecated.

You will also get an error at some point about the files not being in
a development package…

#15

I replaced include for includedir but I’m still getting the same error, any other suggestion?

#16

Also, I know ${__make} is deprecated but I didn’t know what to replace it with.

Finally to the suggestion about static libraries and .la files, that’s not up to me but to the developers (Videolan/Doom9) so I won’t touch that.

#17

Have you corrected the spec, as Malcolm said?

show “the same error” again.

#18

That’s exactly what I did.

#19

Hey Malcolm,

Do you think this error has to do with the fact that I’m using ./configure --PREFIX=/usr in %prep and these files are being created in %{buildroot}

Just a thought.

By the way, thanks for your help.

Hi
Check your project, created request id 220613

There are more errors for you to sort through, will be back home later
on…
