You should be able to rebuild the rpmdb RPM before you run genhdlist, and you need to rebuild the comps rpm after you run genhdlist. Once you rebuild the comps RPM, don't put it in the RedHat/RPMS directory; put it in the RedHat/base, and rename it comps.rpm.
Okay, I figured it out. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Rebuild rpmdb before the *first* genhdlist and rebuild comps after the *second* genhdlist. In other words: rpmbuild -ba rpmdb.spec genhdlist --withnumbers ... getfullcomps.py ... pkgorder ... buildinstall ... splitdistro ... genhdlist --withnumbers --fileorder ... rpmbuild -ba comps.spec -- Tim Moloney ManTech Real-time Systems Laboratory 2015 Cattlemen Road \ / Sarasota, FL 34232 .________\(O)/________.
