Since hasher (more exactly, hasher-priv) defines TERM=dumb, probably packagereq may do the same without risk of break. Implemented in -0.7.1-alt1 |
The compiltaion process may use the terminfo database, and so the generated list of dependencies may include "terminfo-extra" if buildreq was called from a rare terminal. Simply automatically ignoring this dependency may not be the right thing, since it is possible that the terminfo data is really required to build the package. Perhaps, setting TERM to a simple value ("dumb") is a solution... Packages involved: $ rpm -qa rpm-utils terminfo-extra 'color*' rpm-utils-0.7.0-alt1 terminfo-extra-5.3.20021019-alt1 color-gcc-0.6.0-alt2 colorifer-0.6.0-alt2 Steps to Reproduce: The info for the terminal type of Emacs' shell/term is in terminfo-extra. Here is how it gets into BuildReq's: 1. install terminfo-extra 2. emacs, M-x eshell RET 3. export TERM=eterm # "eterm" means Emacs' term 4. buildreq urlview.spec Actual Results: # Automatically added by buildreq on Sun Sep 21 2003 BuildRequires: OpenSP libncurses-devel libtinfo-devel sgml-tools terminfo-extra Expected Results: # Automatically added by buildreq on Sun Sep 21 2003 BuildRequires: OpenSP libncurses-devel libtinfo-devel sgml-tools
