- When building an RPM, I setup a number of requires, it builds fine, but when I try to install the RPM, it complains about a number of the requires which are installed at the correct versions.
Spec File:
Requires: ldconfig == 2.3.3
Error when installing the RPM:
error: Failed dependencies:
ldconfig = 2.3.3 is needed by package-1.00.00-1.C30mdk
When I do an RPM check, I get the following:
#rpm -qa | grep ldconfig
ldconfig-2.3.3-12.8.100mdk
#rpm -q ldconfig-2.3.3-12.8.100mdk --queryformat '%{NAME}tt%{VERSION}n'
ldconfig 2.3.3
I am using the following RPM packages:
rpm-4.2.2-7mdk
rpm-build-4.2.2-7mdk
rpmdrake-2.1.3-3.1.C30mdk
rpmtools-4.5-19.1.100mdk
rpm-helper-0.9.1-1mdk
rpm-devel-4.2.2-7mdk

- Did you try 'Requires: ldconfig >= 2.3.3', as it may be picking it up as
'%{version}-%{release}'

- Appreciated. Will investigate possible version-release combo that may apply.
HOWEVER your suggestion response has different symantics - we require exact match for our purposes. Does your comment still apply for '==' too?

- Performed a query on the package with the following command:
rpm -q ldconfig-2.3.3-12.8.100mdk --queryformat '%{NAME} %{VERSION} %{RELEASE}n'
ldconfig 2.3.3 12.8.100mdk
Changed the requires in the rpm to include the release information, and it still fails.

- Did you try '>' or '>='?
What is the output of:
# rpm -qp --requires {your_rpm}

- I tried >=, and it builds the rpm, and the requires doesn't complain when it is installed, but it isn't what I want/need. I need the requires to be absolute, otherwise, I can't guarantee that it will build or act the same.
I need the ability to perform an == on the requires.
Please advise.

- Here's a snippet from the rpm requires query:
#rpm -qp package-1.00.00-1.C30mdk.i586.rpm --requires
ctags = 5.5.2
xemacs = 21.4.15
tcp_wrappers-devel = 7.6
bash = 2.05b
grep = 2.5.1
ldconfig = 2.3.3
...

- '=' should give you what you need, since everything after that is simply the distro
vendors release version. There would be no changes to the functioning of
ldconfig. By using '==' you would have to bind it to vendor-release.

- Changed the spec from from == to = and it doesn't act any differently.
It still complains that the required RPM isn't installed.
Please advise.

- So did you try it with the release appended?
Requires: ldconfig = 2.3.3-12.8.100mdk

- Yes, we tried adding the VERSION and RELEASE combinations for '=' with no change in results. You seem to be having difficulty with this RPM question - are there other experts available that might know what is going wrong?

- There is no method for me to turn this over to someone else, or escalate it (I
really wish there was).
I believe your only option is to close it out, and repost it.

- Thank you Linegod.
I noticed something else about the new RPM lately that might be a clue. The example is from mozilla-firefox (rpm -qp /mnt/guinness/Mandrake/cdrom102/media/main/mozilla-firefox-1.0.2-3mdk.i586.rpm --requires) which lists the following (among others).
gtk 2 >= 0:2.2.0
I wonder what the "0:" prefix means; I have not found it documented anywhere yet. Do you think that this might be related?

- The issue was due to customer not using EPOCH specification in Requirement as follows.
Requires: my_package = 2:2.02
