The problem for me was 'make srpm' and 'make i386' worked, but 'make build' did not. Increasing the release number and re-tagging helped. Wuth the other package in limbo I did the same, but then had output files from make srpm and make i386, which caused 'make tag' to again abort halfway through, so I had rm those files locally, and again increaase the build number and create a new tag. It suckes, but it worked now. I think 'make tag' should do more sanity checks before it starts modifying things, so that it doesnt fail midway the process, but fails at the start. So both my packages that were in not being built have now successfully rebuild.
