Description of problem:
The rpmsq.c check for PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT = PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL appears to have no effect except to break portability. The default mutex type appears to not matter here, because the mutex type is set in INIT_LOCK macro to PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE. In fact, checking for _NORMAL default type conflicts with always setting type to _RECURSIVE.
Note, please disregard Fedora release in this bug report; not sure which Fedora release contains rpm 4.8.0
One possible fix would be to remove lines 16-20 of rpmsq.c. Or to fix this only for HP-UX builds, line 17 could be changed to:
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rpm 4.8.0
How reproducible:
Compile in HP-UX 11iv2 environment
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
Actual results:
An HP-UX 11iv2 build of rpm 4.8.0 breaks with this msg:
rpmsq.c:18:4: error: #error RPM expects PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT == PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL
