Interesting. How can I tell which rpm it's failing on then? It gives me missing dependencies on: gawk /usr/share/magic.mime /usr/bin/find openldap /sbin/chkconfig /bin/mktemp /bin/rm /bin/mv sh-utils textutils /usr/sbin/useradd Which are listed in the httpd.spec file that came with the distrubution. --snip-- Requires: gawk, /usr/share/magic.mime, /usr/bin/find, openldap Prereq: /sbin/chkconfig, /bin/mktemp, /bin/rm, /bin/mv Prereq: sh-utils, textutils, /usr/sbin/useradd --snip-- I understand what you are saying, but I'm confused why it's failing on the stock install files - especially gawk, useradd, and rm.
