I'm trying to build an old(ish) kernel (2.6.29.1-46-fc11.i586) on an up-to-date F-11 system, but I keep getting a build failure. I have tracked it down to the following. At the beginning of the %install stage, it executes '[' /u/home/hsn/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/kernel-2.6.29.1-46.fc11.i386 '!=' / '] rm -rf /u/home/hsn/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/kernel-2.6.29.1-46.fc11.i386 but there are already files in that directory that have been created earlier in the build process and are needed for the install (see extract of build log below). I notice that when kernels are build in koji, this rm ... does not get executed, but also, looking at other packages' build.log in koji (the example I took was rpm itself), then the equivalent rm command is executed. I cannot see where the rm ... command comes from, or how to stop it. Can anyone give me some pointers?
