[Ltib] Installation problems with Fedora FC10 (rpmb and mtd utils)

[Colin Helliwell]

I am having some troubles with installation (i.e. the first run) of ltib. The OS is 32-bit Fedora 10, and with both the 6.x and 8.x tarballs and a cvs checkout, I am failing the dependencies check. Despite rpm-build being installed, ltib claims it isn’t – I think this is because it is searching for /usr/lib/rpm/rpmb. This file doesn’t seem to be in FC10’s rpm-build, nor can I find which package it *is* in.

 

I don’t know if rpmb itself is actually needed, so this next step may be invalid. But anyway, I commented out the rpm-build check and tried again (on an up-to-date cvs checkout). I am now getting an error:

 

+ cd /opt/ltib/usr/src/rpm/BUILD

+ cd mtd

+ make -C util

RPM build errors:

Can you give any pointers to fixing this (or suggestions with help to debug it)?

Thanks.
