i *know* this has come up before, and i've already skimmed what google found for me.
i have a cross-compile toolchain that i'm trying to use to cross compile a src rpm. this means that i have a pre-built "rpmbuild" executable that i don't have the source for at the moment, so i'm kind of limited in that respect.
as part of the rebuild process, the first step listed in the docs is to just
do a "prep" step, which sadly fails immediately on trying to unload the bzipped tarball.
i've seen, via google, that the "Error: Bad owner/group" message refers to the owner/group of the files within the tarball.
Hmm.... I didn't think that was a fatal error. Did all the files get unpacked?
