Help needed - errors while building rpm from srpm

[Edmon Begoli]

Hi,

I used commons-codec as well as previous version of the htmlunit to
create a new .spec file.

I did SRPM build on FC13.

Here are the issues I encountered:

1. My package POM file requires maven-release-plugin. On F13 I could
not find any maven plugin that has to do with
    maven and release (sudo yum search maven | grep release)

2. When I build the srpm (rpmbuild -bs --clean htmlunit.spec) I get
srpm built but when I try to build rpm or to install rpm
   I get this:

$ rpmbuild --ba --clean SPECS/htmlunit.spec
Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.OqRY17

error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.3IIwbQ (%build)


RPM build errors:
    Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.3IIwbQ (%build)

My most recent srpm and spec files are on:
http://ebegoli.fedorapeople.org/htmlunit-2.7-1.src.rpm
http://ebegoli.fedorapeople.org/htmlunit.spec

If you could, would you please take a look at what I may be doing
wrong (or if the absence of maven-release-plugin may
be an issue).

Thank you in advance,
Edmon

Hello Edmon, i packaged maven-release but it's sitting only in F-14
(a pre-2.0 svn snapshot) and rawhide (release tagged 2.0) right now.
It contains both maven-release-manager and maven-release-plugin

The logs doesnt tell that much, try invoking mvn-jpp with the -X flag to get
the exception.

Your specfile needs some work beside the failing build:
- URL should be the webpage of the project
- Source should point to the actual download url:
Source0: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/%{name}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz
- you should Require: java
- groupId in %add_to_maven_depmap is net.sourceforge.htmlunit
- verrel in changelog is 2.7-1 not 1:2.7


cheers,
Guido

Guido,

Would you point me to the link/location where I can download the most
recent working version
of maven-release-plugin that I can use for building my package(s).

Thank you,
Edmon

You can find all builds of Fedora packages on koji[1]. maven-release can
be found there as well[2]
