This is not much more than collecting the Source's and Patch'es. Example: ia64-only package "elilo" needs "gnu-efi" (also ia64-only). As I prefer to build *all* src.rpm's at a central place, before "rpmbuild --rebuild"ing them on different architectures, I build the src.rpm's on my central i386 system (and I will --rebuild this elilo src.rpm only on ia64, where the requirements are satisfied). -- -- Jos Vos <jos@xxxxxx> -- X/OS Experts in Open Systems BV | Phone: +31 20 6938364 -- Amsterdam, The Netherlands | Fax: +31 20 6948204 _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
