%configure fails, print config.log

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a failure in %configure which only happens on i686:

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=2710279

> configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
> See 'config.log' for more details

This isn't about this specific failure, but more of a shell / RPM
macro expansion question.  How I can get config.log to be reliably,
automatically printed on failure?

I tried several variations of:

  %configure || { cat config.log; exit 1 }

  %configure \
  || { cat config.log; exit 1 }

  if ! %configure; then
    cat config.log
    exit 1
  fi

  if ! { %configure }; then
    cat config.log
    exit 1
  fi

None of them work in this case, and I don't understand exactly why.
(Strangely other spec files use one of the above variations and
apparently it works fine for them ...)

A corollary to this question: Can't we have the %configure macro
always dump config.log on failure?

Another question: Does RPM always use bash as the shell?
