Errors while creating fedora spin.

[sayantandas]

Hi ,

I have been trying to create a fedora 13 x86_64 spin with all development libraries installed using revisor. However, I keep running into the same error, irrespective of what I do. I am adding the error output here. If anyone could advise me how to get around this problem, it would be very helpful.

Thanks

Apparently they need a workaround for their workaround...

Aside from filing a bug, I would suggest using livecd-creator directly.

Whenever i have built spins i have needed to temporarily disable selinux
su -
echo "0" >/selinux/enforceto r enable either restart or do
su -
echo "1" >/selinux/enforce

[sayantandas]

SELinux is already disabled on my system

I've the same problem and I've narrowed it down that buildinstall fails because of an invalid argument string is passed from revisor to it.


I'll continue investigating during the day.

Okey. Found out what is wrong... buildinstall shipped with anaconda-runtime is incompatible with revisor.

So copy /usr/lib/revisor/scripts/F12-buildinstall to /ust/lib/revisor/scripts/F13-buildinstall and problem solved.

Thanks,
That seemed to solve the problem.
However, there is another problem.. I keep getting this error. Any ideas?

/var/tmp/revisor/var/lib/rpm: No such file or directory

I have also had all the issues mentioned above. I still don't have revisor working. In the last two releases of Fedora, I've only ONCE managed to get revisor to work properly, and that was after a lot of hacking. It would be awesome if the app would just work out the box...:(
