Right, for detailed information see: http://www.redhat.com/archives/rhl-devel-list/2007-November/msg00171.html I don't understand how the /home/dhowells/rpmbuild/.. path triggers this since it would appear to be considerably longer than 15 characters. We would need to see the actual debugedit command line (which I don't think rpmbuild prints). BTW the source of the error is here: http://rpm.org/gitweb?p=rpm.git;a=blob;f=tools/debugedit.c;h=0f85885e38a406f20f5b3779915908b4069691ea;hb=HEAD#l688 Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Read my programming and virtualization blog: http://rwmj.wordpress.com virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines.
