RPM 4.8.0 && %_filter_GLIBC_PRIVATE

[David Abdurachmanov]

Hi,

I am building RPM for GNU GCC 4.8.0 (prerelease), which now includes TSAN (Thread Sanitizer). That pulls in ld-linux-x86-64.so.2(GLIBC_PRIVATE)(64bit) as a dependency, yet glibc RPM from system has it filtered our from provides.

I set %_filter_GLIBC_PRIVATE to 1 in macros file, yet it still puts GLIBC_PRIVATE in my GCC RPM requires.

I also have %_use_internal_dependency_generator disabled (set to 0).

I also tried to put some rpmlog commands in RPM code to get some internal state information, but I didn't find any of those messages in rpmbuild (-vv) logs.

Any ideas why filtering out doesn't work?

Other option would be trying %filter_from_requires in the SPEC itself.

Cheers,
david
