Description D. Marlin 2016-11-09 01:47:46 UTC
Description of problem:

avr-libc fails to build from source for Fedora EPEL7 on RHELSA-7.2.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

avr-libc-1.8.0-5.el7


How reproducible:

  consistently


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  On a RHELSA-7.2 host:
    mock rebuild avr-libc-1.8.0-5.el7.src.rpm
2.
3.

Actual results:

Fails to build with the following error:

configure: error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one


Expected results:

builds without errors.


Additional info:

According to the spec file:

  #autoreconf -fiv # required for aarch64 support, not needed since autotools 2.69+

however RHELSA-7.2 provides autoconf-2.69-11.el7, and the build still fails.  If I uncomment that line:

  autoreconf -fiv # required for aarch64 support, not needed since autotools 2.69+

the build completes successfully.
