Circa 2006-03-20 01:53 dixit Raman Gupta:
: Hello, I am running Fedora Core 4. I have followed the directions at [1]
: in order to get a non-root build tree setup with the appropriate macros,
: dir structure, etc.
:
: I am now attempting to build the msttcorefonts RPM (spec file at [2]).
: However, any lines that involve "cd <somedir>" seem to fail during building:
[...]
: It works fine if I edit the spec file and change all lines involving cd,
: and prefix a `pwd`/ before them e.g.
:
: cd %{name}
:
: change to
:
: cd `pwd`/%{name}
[...]
: Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can fix it? I don't
: want to continue to build RPMs as root.
Please share your ~/.rpmmacros and ~/.rpmrc files.
