rpmbuild vmod-header woes

[Mike Bailey]

Hi Jason,

Thx for you reply.


·         Following your suggestion I updated the spec file to call configure as a macro rather than from the command line

·         The rpmbuild pkgs were in place

·         To kludge my way around the issue with the missing lib64 directory tree I slung a few shell commands under the %install macro to create the directory tree and then move the libraries into place

o    mkdir -p %{buildroot}/usr/lib64/varnish/vmods %{buildroot}/usr/share/doc/vmod-header

o    mv  %{buildroot}/usr/local/lib/varnish/vmods/libvmod_header.a  %{buildroot}/usr/lib64/varnish/vmods/

o    mv  %{buildroot}/usr/local/lib/varnish/vmods/libvmod_header.la %{buildroot}/usr/lib64/varnish/vmods/

o    mv  %{buildroot}/usr/local/lib/varnish/vmods/libvmod_header.so %{buildroot}/usr/lib64/varnish/vmods/

Still have to test the rpm pkg to see if it works with our varnish development environment

Thx again !

Hi,

We have been tasked with compiling/supporting several VMods. Among them is vmod-header https://github.com/varnish/libvmod-header

We will be deploying these VMods across a number of varnish servers [Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.5 (Santiago)]

Because of the number of servers; we are using rpmbuild to create a binary pkg for deployment. However the compilation has been a real effort. I have rpmbuild compiling the VMod code itself, but now there seems to be problems with creating the 64bit libraries or at least the of a 64bit library path.

The VMod code is somewhat dated (Oct 2012) so I thought perhaps there is something changes/dependencies that I am missing ?  I am finding it difficult to google any links for “ VMod” and  “rpmbuild”. A simple compile of the code works fine no issues. I was able to rpmbuild vmod-curl earlier today with virtually no issues. I really think this is primarily an rpmbuild issue, but perhaps someone reading this maillist might have some suggestions.

Thx in advance, I have listed the rpmbuild spec file and a tail of the rpmbuild output

Summary: Header VMOD for Varnish %{VARNISHVER}
Name: vmod-header
Version: 0.1
Release: 1%{?dist}
License: BSD
Group: System Environment/Daemons
Source0: ./libvmod-header.tar.gz
BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n)
Requires: varnish > 3.0
BuildRequires: make, autoconf, automake, libtool, python-docutils

%description
Header VMOD for Varnish %{VARNISHVER}.

%prep
%setup -n libvmod-header

%build
# this assumes that VARNISHSRC is defined on the rpmbuild command line, like this:
# rpmbuild -bb --define 'VARNISHSRC /home/user/rpmbuild/BUILD/varnish-3.0.3' redhat/*spec
./configure VARNISHSRC=%{VARNISHSRC} VMODDIR="$(PKG_CONFIG_PATH=%{VARNISHSRC} pkg-config --variable=vmoddir varnishapi)" --prefix=/usr/ --docdir='${datarootdir}/doc/%{name}'

You aren't passing full path info here so libraries may end up in /lib instead of /lib64 etc

Usually the minimum is --prefix and --libdir but it all depends on the program's defaults.

Easiest way is make sure rpm-build-macro package is installed (I think it's called that) - it contains all the RedHat specific stuff.
Then use %configure instead of ./configure.
It will expand to a large ./configure containing all necessary paths.

Regards,

Jason
