Re: [Ltib] LTIB installation problem

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Shila,

Double check that in your bin/Ltibutils.pm it looks exactly like this
(around line 574):

    'ncurses-devel'  => sub { -f '/usr/include/ncurses.h' },
    'rpm-build'      => sub { `rpmbuild --version 2>/dev/null` },
    sudo             => 'sudo -V 2>/dev/null',

If not, please try correcting.

If it does look like this then I don't understand why ltib is
complaining that it's not being installed.  In this case you have 2 options:

1/ Try to debug and find out why an error is returned.  You could do
this by removing 2>/dev/null from the 'rpm-build' line and then look at
the output when you run

2/ If all else fails, comment out the line (~97) in ltib:

            rpm-build       0

Regards, Stuart
