obmtool install failure on centOS 4.4

Hi,

I am still running kolab 2.0.3 on CentOS 4.4. The machine
runs on x86_64, 
hence I am compiling in a VMWare instance running the i386
version of the 
same distro and copy over the resulting RPMs.

I want to upgrade to 2.1, but the build fails right after
the OpenPkg 
bootstrap when trying to build the first packages. Obviously
there is a 
problem with file permissions.

The strange thing is I tried to rebuild kolab 2.0.3 for
reference and here 
everything works flawlessly.

Any idea what is wrong with 2.1? Same thing happens if I try
an upgrade 
instead of a fresh install.

Below are the relevant sections of the kolab-build.log, cut
to reasonable 
size.

Are you root when starting obmtool ?
Did you verify your package with a md5sum ?
# md5sum -c MD5SUM

can you run
# find /kolab* -iname "config.log" -ls
and look for the error in the last (look the date) log files
?

The error that I was getting was that the rpm was missing -
it was missing

I ended up editing the obmtool script and changing line 372

BUILDUSER=root

Instead of letting it figure out the user.  Now this is
probably not the best 
solution, but I have not had time to go back out and figure
out the proper 
solution.

I was root when I started the build and the files that were
downloaded were 
all owned by root.

Not sure if that helps at all.

Thanks, that absolutely did the trick!

All RPMs did build cleanly (with slight massage on gmp and
clamav as 
documented in the wiki).  Now upgrading to 2.1 should
finally work. 

Any idea why this permission problem occured? I am sure this
issue does not 
come up too often, otherwise obmtool would not be as it is,
right? Also as 
said before it did not occur with kolab 2.0.3.

Andreas Micklei
