xdelta3 on CentOS 6

[Zlatokosa]

Hi, I have to install xdelta3 on CentOS 6.8. With yum, only older versions are installed. I found the following manual on the internet:

• CentOS6 64bit Because there is no 'RPM package' of xdelta3 for CentOS6, It is necessary to get the source code and build it.

  Install the following if you do not have

  yum install git yum install libtool yum install xz yum install gcc-c++

  Installing autoconf

  cd /usr/local/src/ wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-2.69.tar.gz tar zxf autoconf-2.69.tar.gz cd autoconf-2.69 ./configure make make install

  Confirming version

  autoconf -V

  Build and Installing xdelta

  git clone https://github.com/jmacd/xdelta-devel.git cd xdelta-devel wget http://tukaani.org/xz/xz-5.2.1.tar.xz cd xdelta3 mkdir build ./run_release.sh cd build/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-m64/xoff64/ make make install cp -Rap bin/xdelta3 /usr/bin/xdelta3

  Confirming version

  /usr/bin/xdelta3 -V

I cannot perform ./run_release.sh without errors. Among all errors, please take a look at following. Also If you have better way to install xdelta3 on CentOS6, please let me know.

if run error : cc1plus: “-std=c++11” error you need make in gcc4.8.2+: need update gcc => gcc 4.8.2

I've got a version here that seems to work reasonably well. I relaxed a few library dependencies (automake, autoconf) and flipped the unsupported c++11 flags to the previous naming convention for gcc 4.4.7. You can find it here: https://github.com/kwharrigan/xdelta/tree/centos

Haven't done any extensive testing so ymmv.

See a CentOS-specific readme here: https://github.com/kwharrigan/xdelta/blob/centos/xdelta3/README_centos.md

I created a RPM spec file for CentOS 6. I am attaching it here for those that are interested. I had to change the file extension from .spec to .txt because of GitHub's stupid filtering. You can build with a "plain vanilla" release of xdelta3.

To build

• enable the two repositories referenced in the comments at the top of the spec file
• 'yum install' all the BuildRequires
• Ensure you have both the spec file (change the file extension to .spec) and the source tarball in the appropriate locations.
• Run the following commands: (you may replace bash with zsh in the first command) -- scl enable devtoolset-3 bash -- cd (path-where-you-keep-your-spec-files) -- rpmbuild -ba xdelta3.spec -- (sudo or as root) yum localinstall (path-to-xdelta3-${version}.rpm)

(Edited because GitHub seems not to like angle brackets)
