rpmbuild --rebuild --target=noarch kernel-2.6.8-1.525.src.rpm
builds only:
Wrote:/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/noarch/kernel-doc-2.6.8-1.525.root.noarch.rpm
now i found a solution:
first i exstract the spec file
- rpmbuild --rebuild --target=i686-linux kernel-2.6.8-1.525.src.rpm
- edit the kernel spec file: kernel-2.6.spec
set %define buildsource 0 to %define buildsource 1
rebuild:
rpmbuild -ba --target=noarch kernel-2.6.spec
my last question, why is the name of the rpm
kernel-sourcecode-2.6.8-1.525.root.noarch.rpm
^^^^
is it possible to get a name like this ?
kernel-sourcecode-2.6.8-1.525.noarch.rpm
