Ah, yes, I probably misunderstood the original poster's question because of my own bias about what *I* want. I want to build a 'noarch' and 'noos' rpm that can be installed on different operating systems from the same rpm package. It contains only architecture and operating system independent data. So it would seem reasonable to be able to install that same file on multiple different platforms. But this does not work that I can tell. This is the part that *I* was complaining about. Yes, I can create a specific rpm that installs on one specific operating system too. You are probably right and looking at the original message I think that is the capability they were asking about. Thanks for clarifying that point. Bob
