did anyone ask centos to simply build with this flag to enable these features?
The CentOS bug tracker is open for suggestions from all The RHEL buildsystem flags used are not published systematically by Red Hat, in any venue that I am that I am aware of. Obviously command line 'defines' and build environment cause certain conditionals in a .spec file to be triggered, one way or the other. Also the presence of -devel type packages in a build chroot, not explicitly enumerated through BuildRequires cause the auto-tools to add options conditionally. Tool versions not publically released sometimes are used to build packages [there were 'header marks' from a gcc [and implied toolchain], that was never externally released by Red Hat in the early 6 series, as I recall]. And so on. The complexity explodes combinatorially ... and so a SRPM rebuild effort [of which CentOS is one] builds, and tests, sometimes with ldd, and sometimes in other ways, to see that a 'close enough' reproduction of the binaries issued by Red Hat, are achieved Out of curiousity, _what_ build environment 'flags' do you all, participating in this thread, refer to? -- the thread does not enumerate them explicitly, and one cannot expect to hit by 'indirect fire', a target not exposed With best regards, this New Year's eve - -- Russ herrold -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlLDjcgACgkQMRh1QZtklkRMWACeJpv5D4Lmo/pk+bn/fdVEBYCY JscAn369cgjOKVUZqJHrAYjRu/XkodCl =d1tY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
