Yup, and all wonderfully mixed up - rpm's idea of --target is something completely different from what auto*foo from this century thinks of it. Dunno if it ever was really valid but certainly not anymore. rpm >= 4.8.0 no longer sets the --target on %configure but that's been masked by the redhat-rpm-config version of %configure. That's been fixed too as of today. - Panu - -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
