oddly the %fdupes line fails on every platform I’ve tried building this spec file on (including openSUSE), giving an error along the lines of:
26s] + %fdupes -s /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/komodo-edit-10.1.4-22.1.x86_64/usr
26s] /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.Z7xvt9: line 66: fg: no job control
26s] error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.Z7xvt9 (%install)
. Building this spec file on CentOS and Fedora (without the %if 0%{?suse_version} line before the %fdupes line, of course) also returns this error. Any ideas why? I have read this packaging guide but it was of little help as the only fg error troubleshooting it mentioned was related to the %suse_update_desktop_file macro.
The %fdupes line is required as without it the package fails rpmlint tests due to duplicate files.
Thanks for your time,
Brenton
