Concerning RPM specs. I created rpm packages on a x86_64 SuSE 10.3 system. There were two complains about unmatched dependencies for expat-devel and perl(Error) I could not get rid off. So I used rpmbuild --nodeps -ta git-1.5.4.rc4.tar.gz The installation (rpm -i) gave the following error error: Failed dependencies: openssh-clients is needed by git-core-1.5.4.rc4-1.x86_64 perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.8) is needed by perl-Git-1.5.4.rc4-1.x86_64 But when I used --nodeps here too the installation went through and git seams to be working alright Cheers, Michael - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
