One of the rpms I'd like to be able to compile is one of the libc variants. :-) >If so, then you need to modify the .spec file for the given rpm ... I was afraid you were going to say that! I was hoping there was some way to do it without modifying the spec files by hand. Of course, the Makefiles would also have to modified to support $(ROOT). Hmm, maybe I need to write a script that'll build a sandbox that I can chroot to before I do a 'rpm -ba'. Mike McDonald mikemac@mikemac.com
