#112 Issue closed: make rpm bails out¶
Labels: bug
gdha opened issue at 2012-06-15 14:55:¶
When trying to build a RPM on working directory of rear I get
+ cp -pr AUTHORS COPYING README 'doc/*.html' doc/layoutman.txt doc/rear-documentation.txt doc/rear-presentation.txt doc/rear-release-notes.txt doc/rear.8.txt doc/relax-recover-concept.txt /root/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/rear-1.13.0-1.git201206151738.fc17.i386/usr/share/doc/rear-1.13.0
cp: cannot stat `doc/*.html': No such file or directory
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.hN5vqb (%doc)
It tries to copy html files, which aren't there, so it fails. We should
enhance our Makefile with the following:
# diff Makefile Makefile.save
117c117
< rpm: dist-git doc
---
> rpm: dist-git
Sorry to be a drag, but then I get an error:
asciidoc rear-documentation.txt
ERROR: rear-documentation.txt: line 9: malformed author: Dag Wieers and Jeroen Hoekx
make[1]: *** [rear-documentation.html] Error 1

I don't really want the html documentation in the rpm. Just the manpage and the documentation as txt seems enough to me.

Yes, Jeroen disabled the html generation again, while I wanted to have the html files inside of the tar (and rpm).

This works fine for me and has been since 18 months at least:
[dag@moria doc]$ asciidoc rear-documentation.txt
[dag@moria doc]$ asciidoc --version
asciidoc 8.6.7
Although 18 months ago it was 8.5 IIRC.
Personally I would prefer if we generate the html files and man page
as
part of make dist so that distributions do not need the asciidoc
toolchain for the packaging.

First item should be fixed (by removing the doc/*.html reference in the SPEC file)

make rpm works fine (without html file creation). For the asciidoc stuff I'll open a new issue.
