With Fedora 28 nearing EOL, I dnf removed my mythtv rpm packages and did
dnf system-upgrade reboot. All went well, and all-but-one of the F29
mythtv rpms previously built from Gary's script installed happily (after
using --skip-broken) and most of mythtv works.
But mythtv-plugins fails to install; nothing provides mkisofs or
cdrecord. I have installed the rpms for xorriso and wodim, which have
put files with those names in /usr/bin, but still can't install
mythtv-plugins. I've run ansible too.
I suppose dnf is probably looking for rpm packages with the names that
it can't find, and I could try a specfile requiring xorriso and wodim
instead of mkisofs and cdrecord - but I wonder if this is a known
problem with a preferred solution?
AFAICT xorriso and genisoimage both provide mkisofs, and wodim and
cdrskin both provide cdrecord.
----------
I see a specfile update has appeared: genisoimage and wodim. Thanks!
And it looks as if I may have missed one or two others recently. Time
for another git pull, I guess.
----------------
I re-cloned at
https://github.com/garybuhrmaster/packaging/commit/b499e547f001aa954637d65e16480e124ca6c596
and the build for F29 'just worked.' A build under F29 for el7 using
the normal CentOS repos and without libvpx worked too. I had found
earlier that the specially updated build of libvpx conflicted with the
el7 kde plasma desktop. I don't have any vpx content.
Both builds are installed and running.
Both my specfiles now have all instances of vpx within conditional
clauses like
{{{
%if 0%{?fedora}
--enable-libvpx \
%else
--disable-libvpx \
%endif
}}}
and those are the only changes. I had previously dropped the
requirement for the google fonts, because they are already in the myth
download, but they just crept back in.
Thanks...
