So, after installing 160MB's worth of package, just to install
rpm-build, I still can't rebuild the package
I'm now updating the whole syste, which will install another 53MB
worth of packages. Sadly, google don't have an answer to my problems.
[root@temp01 /]# rpmbuild --rebuild xen-3.2.0-0xs.centos5.src.rpm
You should not run rpmbuild as root (unless xen needs that - I am not
sure, I don't use xen).
rpmbuild requires some additional RPMs.
You should really (!) try out all this stuff in some sort of VM.
I assume you have enough (umetered) bandwidth at home/work and only the
colo-traffic is paid by MB.
Yes, it's wasteful to download a DVD image and we should all use less
resources to save the planet.
But even on our old 600/500 (kBit/s, not MBit/s) line at the old office,
the download of a DVD ISO would just take a weekend.
And if even that is an issue, two minutes of searching via Google found
this:
http://www.pricecheck.co.za/offers/2632237/Linux%3A+CentOS+5.1+DVD+%2B+Free+postage%21/
That's

about 4 Euro and 20 Euro-Cents.
Is your time really worth so little?
cheers,
Rainer
