[Kurt Johnson <gorydetailz yahoo co uk>]

Hi all,

Im not really sure this is the right mailing list for
this problems, but anyhow, here it goes.

Im having problems building rpms from source, from the
current rawhide. Specifically, the bash rpm. Here's
the errors I run into, when issueing rpm -bb :

RPM build errors:

I have the relevant rpms:

kurt@laser:~$ rpm -q autoconf automake
autoconf-2.52-6
automake-1.5-5

both from rawhide too, and both built from the source
rpm. m4 is failling too, when I try to build it from
the rawhide srpm:

Executing(%build): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.11983
+ umask 022
+ cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD
+ cd m4-1.4.1
/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/m4-1.4.1
+ autoconf
configure.in:5: error: undefine: undefined macro:
changeword
configure.in:5: the top level
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.11983
(%build)


RPM build errors:
    Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.11983
(%build)


So, am I overlooking something here? Any help would be
great. Thanks for your time
