Do you honestly not have anything better to do? For your info before I posted,
Markmail seemed to sort it out okay as did the OP who posted.

If you think "Mail client is broken" is anything like a reasonable description
of an issue you are quite mistaken... it is one up from "saying computer says
no".
I'll help you out (and bring it back on topic), likewise: your Linux
distribution rebuild project is broken. Was that any help to you? Am I pointing
you in the right way? Please join the dots to figure where it is going wrong...?
Oh, you don't even see the problem, do you? Just ignore it in that case. Perhaps
it will go away by itself. Well, it doesn't exist, so it can't go away because
it was never here.... etc.....

And you know what is wrong with your project. So we are all winners tonight,
aren't we?
Truth be told, I doubt you learned a thing tonight. The CentOS build process is
not the only thing that is "closed" around here.
p.s. When you take your car to the garage do you just tell them that it is
"broken" and they can figure it from there. You'd be doing them a favour...
maybe they might learn something. Personally, I just tell them as much as I can
because I am keen to get it sorted and move on.
Just my opinion, ofcourse.
