I'm running into lots of weird little problems trying to rebuild rpms on an x8_64 system. I use the command setarch i386 rpmbuild --rebuild --target=x86_64,i386 whatever.src.rpm and this creates good results for both i386 and x86_64 about 70% of the time. In the rest of the cases, I get rpms for x86_64, not the other. In this example, I'm trying to rebuild TeXLive from the Fedora testing area http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureTexLive. In order to make this build, I needed up to date cairo, teckit, and t1lib. For x86_64 it does work, not i386 as you see. I wonder if most/all of the i386 rpms you see in the fedora repositories in the x86_64 directory are actually built on i386 systems. Here's the last part of the output. It appears to me some 64 bit libraries and objects creep into the build process. You think so too? cd lib && make -w CC='gcc' CFLAGS='-O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m32 -march=i386 -mtune=generic
