Interesting. Maybe it's something that MontaVista added. Are you aware of current documentation/books on RPM? I have Maximum RPM and I've been to rpm.org, but they are severely out of date. Many of the links at rpm.org are broken, neither place (rpm.org nor the book) reference rpmbuild, and I have only just found "%_topdir <path>" discussed in the Guru Labs document. This latter place was the only place I found that helped me figure out how to build without being a root user. Thanks for your help.
