- the whole point of this package is the C module. It builds for me on Fedora
9 (and RH5.2 and RH7.3 and AIX4.1). I guess I need to learn to use this koji thing now to see the problem for myself.
I followed the koji link you provided, and it is for a mrpt package, not pymilter.
Oops, sorry. your -2 srpm fails to build due to the same reason: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1040488
However, I see that the failure is for Fedora 11, so I assume that the build failed for Fedora 11.
Also fails on F-10: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1040512
This is almost certainly due to libmilter.a. I've had to file that bug for RH73, and Centos4 and Centos5. I guess it isn't obvious to the sendmail packagers that libmilter is very often used in dynamically loaded modules (for Perl, Python, and other scripting languages). But I can only test on F9 at the moment.
So would you file a new bug against sendmain about -fPIC issue on libmilter.a (and post this bug a number you filed)?
