<div class="BodyFragment"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;">
<div class="PlainText">Just an FYI so you don't bash your head against a brick wall like I did.
<br>
The mmbuildgpl script assumes that which is installed and as they say <br>
assumptions are the mother of all screw ups.<br>
<br>
Turns out on RHEL10 when you do a minimal install, which is not part of <br>
the minimal install and it's not a dependency of any of the GPFS RPMs.<br>
<br>
The outcome of which is you get cryptic messages about various stuff <br>
being installed but not in the expected location. That's because the <br>
script tests for say the make RPM and then uses which to test its <br>
location but as which is not installed the test fails.<br>
<br>
Two options; either the GPFS RPMs should have the which package as a <br>
dependency or mmbuildgpl script should test that it is installed and <br>
warn if it is not.<br>
