Can anyone give > any pointers? Thanks. You only need the liblzma bits to be static. I think the following should work 1. Install the F15 xz-5 source rpm and prepare it for building (rpmbuild -bp) 2. Go into the xz-5 build directory and run make 3. Install the F15 deltarpm source rpm and prepare it for building (rpmbuild -bp) 4. Go into the deltarpm build directory and edit the Makefile to use the lzma headers and archive you just built - with something like the patch below 5. make 6. Test the applydeltaiao and makdeltaiso files to see if they work.
