Re: Newbie's first RPM goes wrong

[Chris Chabot <chabotc@xxxxxxxxx>]

Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files %{buildroot}
getOutputFrom(): Broken pipe

Oh FYI, i think thats why __check_files failed... Pls do include that 
BuildRoot: i mentioned in a previous email:

BuildRoot: BuildRoot: /%{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root

%files

> /u/ek/pln/bin/howdy
>  
Why not try changing this to %{_bindir}/howdy and then installing the 
rpm with:
# rpm -ivh --prefix=/u/ek/pln howdy-1.0-1.i386.rpm

.. there's nothing as ugly as hard coded paths in spec files
