Message #5 received at submit@bugs.x2go.org (full text, mbox, reply):

Package: nx-libs
Version: 3.5.0.17

Installation is done using

make install \
        INSTALL_DIR="install -dm0755" \
        INSTALL_FILE="install -pm0644" \
        INSTALL_PROGRAM="install -pm0755" \
        DESTDIR="/var/tmp/whatever" PREFIX="/usr" \
        NXLIBDIR="/usr/lib64/nx" X2GOLIBDIR="/usr/lib/x2go"

And at the end of the day, rpm notices the following broken link:

[  126s] ERROR: link target doesn't exist (neither in build root nor in
installed sys...
[  126s]   /usr/lib/x2go/bin/x2goagent -> /usr/lib/nx/bin/nxagent

This is because the top-level Makefile does a rather dumb command:

        cd $(DESTDIR)$(X2GOLIBDIR)/bin/ && ln -sf ../../nx/bin/nxagent 
x2goagent

so it creates a pointer to a non-existing target.

This is getting above my head. I already had to endure the silent
introduction of the NXLIBDIR variable..
(it's really not fun if suddenly the entire filelist in .spec or whatever else
is worthless because USRLIBDIR and SHLIBDIR are no longer used)
