[Ltib] Fedora 11 / Issues to build LTIB / rpm-fs build fails / %pfx macro

[Franz TRIERWEILER]

Good evening,

I have been using LTIB for several weeks on a
Debian 5.0 distro. This morning, I started to install LTIB on a Fedora
11 freshly new distro. I have been facing issues with rpm-fs build
(this is built upon first LTIB launch).

In fact, the script does not seem to be able to build rpm-fs
because a macro (%pfx) is missing. I have added to this request the
tail of my host_config.log

I remember that, when installing LTIB
on the Debian 5.0 a few weeks ago, I had faced the same issue but after
several tries, this had been successfully worked (at this time I had
not understood why but I was happy enough to go on).

Did someone meet the same issue? Until now, I have been stuck for
several hours with that issue. I tried to unsinstall/install rpm-build
once again but this does not have any effect. More globally, I would
like to understand what rpm-fs is used for.

Note: I am using the LTIB install provided by my iMX25 Freescale CD/ROM.

Thanks for you help.

Regards,
Franz
