Make sure to put /etc/selinux in the excludes section of /etc/checkinstallrc, and you should be able to generate rpms on just about any package that you can do a ./configure, make, make install process on. Just substitute checkinstall for the make install step. Dave -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
