The spec file is included in the src.rpm The spec file specifies the BuildRequires, the configure switches, the patches (which are in a src.rpm), the install process, the file permissions. All that is in the src.rpm and NOT in the build system that happens to rebuild the src.rpm for distribution. If that is not what you want to hear, fine - but don't then claim your question has gone unanswered. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
