Somehow my Lua rpm package missed the /usr/lib/pkgconfig/lua.pc file and MysqlProxy couldn’t detect Lua install:
[vitalie@silver tmp]$ rpmbuild -ta --define 'with_lua 1' mysql-proxy-0.6.0.tar.gz
[...]
checking for LUA... checking for LUA... configure: error: Package requirements (lua5.1 >= 5.1) were not met:
No package 'lua5.1' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LUA_CFLAGS
and LUA_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
The solution was to specify LUA_CFLAGS and LUA_LIBS variables:
[vitalie@silver tmp]$ LUA_CFLAGS="-I/usr/include" LUA_LIBS="-llua -lm -ldl" rpmbuild -ta --define 'with_lua 1' mysql-proxy-0.6.0.tar.gz

Installing RMagick 2 on CentOS/RHEL 5 it’s not that hard, you just need to install ImageMagick newer than 6.3.5 (CentOS/RHEL 5 is shipping ImageMagick 6.2.8) and that’s the hardest part of the job.
[root@silver ~]# gem install rmagick
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing rmagick:

Can't install RMagick 2.12.2. You must have ImageMagick 6.3.5 or later.I’ve tried to avoid ImageMagick upgrade and to install RMagick 1, but RMagick 1 failed to install with a strange compile error, probably because the gcc compliler shipped with CentOS/RHEL 5 is too new for version 1.
I didn’t wanted to patch RMagick 1, neither to install from sources (I do prefer RPM packages). So, I’ve decided to upgrade ImageMagick library to satisfy RMagick 2 requirements.
Subscribe your system to the following repositories:
Install the following packages:
[root@silver ~]# yum --enablerepo=epel --enablerepo=rpmforge --enablerepo=centosplus install djvulibre-devel libwmf-devel jasper-devel libtool-ltdl-devel librsvg2-devel openexr-devel graphviz-devel gcc gcc-c++ ghostscript freetype-devel libjpeg-devel libpng-devel giflib-devel libwmf-devel libexif-devel libtiff-devel
Add “–noplugins” if you are using “yum-priorities”, or it will fail to install packages.
Download ImageMagick.spec to your SPECS directory and ImageMagick-6.5.7-0.tar.bz2 to SOURCES directory and then rebuild the rpm using rpmbuild:
[root@silver SPECS]# rpmbuild -ba ImageMagick.spec
[...]
Or just grab the source RPM from here:
http://red.penguin.ro/SRPMS/ImageMagick-6.5.7-0.src.rpm
and build it:
[root@silver ~]# rpmbuild --rebuild ImageMagick-6.5.7-0.src.rpm

Ruby Enterprise Edition is a server-oriented friendly branch of Ruby which includes various enhancements:
* A copy-on-write friendly garbage collector. Phusion Passenger uses this, in combination with a technique called preforking, to reduce Ruby on Rails applications’ memory usage by 33% on average.
* An improved memory allocator called tcmalloc, which improves performance quite a bit.
* The ability to tweak garbage collector settings for maximum server performance, and the ability to inspect the garbage collector’s state. (RailsBench GC patch)
* The ability to dump stack traces for all running threads (caller_for_all_threads), making it easier for one to debug multithreaded Ruby web applications.

April 8th, 2009 — Linux, Plesk
After Plesk upgrade we had to upgrade SpamGuardian too, but the scripts from the rpm contains syntax errors and the package can’t be installed:
[root@andromeda tmp]# rpm -Uvh --force 4psa-sguardian-psa9-3.5.0-090305.01.rhel5.i386.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]

/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.42581: line 315: ` echo >> >> /etc/sguardian/sguardian.conf'
The solution is to install the rpm without running PRE/POST install scripts:
[root@andromeda tmp]# rpm -Uvh --force --noscripts 4psa-sguardian-psa9-3.5.0-090305.01.rhel5.i386.rpm
Then we can extract scripts with mc (midnight commander), or rpm -qp –scripts
and run them separately after correcting the syntax errors (comment lines containing “>> >>” string):
[root@andromeda scripts]# sh PREIN
[...]

FreeImage is not yet available as RPM on CentOS/RHEL, so we’ll create one.
Before installing required libraries by FreeImage, configure yum to use Dag’s repositories, see this post how it can be done.
Learn how to setup your account to build RPMS as non-privileged user:
http://www.cherpec.com/2009/01/build-rpms-as-simple-user/
[root@lynx ~] yum install libjpeg-devel libpng-devel libtiff-devel libmng-devel openexr-devel zlib-devel
[...]
Next, download the following files from FreeImage’s website and put them in your SOURCES directory:
And download freeimage.spec and place it in the SPECS directory.
Now, you are ready to build FreeImage, switch to SPECS directory and build FreeImage package:
[joe@lynx SPECS]$ rpmbuild -ba freeimage.spec

It’s not recommended to build your RPMS as root. You can build them as simple user, to accomplish this, you need to create a file called .rpmmacros in your home directory (we’ll assume that your user name is joe and your home directory is /home/joe):
# ~/.rpmmacros
%_topdir /home/joe/rpmbuild
%_tmppath %{_topdir}/tmpThen create required directories:
[joe@lynx ~]$ mkdir -p ~/rpmbuild/{BUILD,RPMS/{noarch,i386,i586,i686,x86_64},SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS,tmp}You are ready to build your RPMS as simple user.
