I have used rpmbuild several times with recent releases, but have never seen this problem before. I'm using release 1290 (1288 did something similar). The tail end of the output of rpmbuild -bp --target=i686 kernel-2.6.spec is: scripts/kconfig/confdata.c: In function 'conf_get_default_confname': scripts/kconfig/confdata.c:62: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 'conf_expand_value' differ in signedness scripts/kconfig/confdata.c: In function 'conf_read': scripts/kconfig/confdata.c:88: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of 'conf_expand_value' differ in signedness .config:2477: trying to assign nonexistent symbol NETDUMP CONFIG_X86_REBOOTFIXUPS CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DELKIN CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IT821X CONFIG_SCSI_LPFC CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_AIRPRIME CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_HP4X make[1]: *** [nonint_oldconfig] Error 6 make: *** [nonint_oldconfig] Error 2 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.22022 (%prep) RPM build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.22022 (%prep) The .config file doesn't even have NETDUMP in it. The other parameters listed are all not set. Any known problems with rpmbuild or am I missing something?
