What do you think the above bugzilla reference is for? Sadly Jeff has already tagged this a WONTFIX. Too bad, as this setup with spec, source and patch files separated by package is very convenient. Guess we will have to work around packages that define "Version:" tags for sub packages. Too bad :( . Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research
