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 }
Maybe
%configure || { cat config.log ; exit 1; }
work? (bash commands inside braces always need semicolon)
Regards,
Mamoru
%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?
Rich.
