Don't cd into %_builddir directly. Run "rpm -E %_builddir" to see which directory that macro expands to. There are corner-cases when you need to use the %_builddir macro. In most cases, you don't need to use it at all. The %setup and %autosetup macros define the top-level build directory below %_builddir, and at the start of every spec file section (e.g. %build, %install, %check, even %files), that build directory is entered automatically. It may also be cleaned up automatically depending on your rpmbuild option and the default %clean section. Create all your other working directories below $(pwd), not anywhere above %_builddir. You can access relative paths from current directory, which is much more convenient. In your case, because of using %autosetup -n platform-master, the root directory is %{_builddir}/platform-master and if you read rpmbuild output, you should see that the directory is entered automatically for every spec file section. If you've used %autosetup correctly, you should find the extracted source code below that directory, too. If you need another top-level directory, you can use option -c to create it. The way you jump to absolute paths and even create links that lead back to some absolute %_builddir path makes the spec file look like a mess. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
