You can always examine the spec file inside the src.rpm *and* also visit the Fedora Build System logs: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=320895 -> http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/ppp/2.4.5/22.fc17/data/logs/x86_64/build.log I'd rather raise the question why Kevin did not simply rebuild the src.rpm? Instead, he extracted the source and tried to set it up manually instead of using the spec file's %build section. Try to rebuild it after installing the "redhat-rpm-config" package. Run: rpmbuild --rebuild ppp-2.4.5-22.fc17.src.rpm If that doesn't change a thing, consider publishing the _full_ output from rpmbuild. For example, from "rpmbuild -bb ppp.spec" or at least from "rpmbuild -bc ppp.spec". -- Fedora release 18 (Spherical Cow) - Linux 3.6.10-5.fc18.x86_64 loadavg: 0.11 0.07 0.05 -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
