Sounds like there's a BuildRoot specified in the specfile (a best practice, anyways), and you're not installing the package into $RPM_BUILD_ROOT, but rather onto the live filesystem. -----Original Message----- From: rpm-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:rpm-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Julien Demoor Sent: Tuesday, April 04, 2006 11:04 AM To: rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Files list Hi, I'm new to RPM and I have a problem when building a package. I do "rpmbuild -ba pkg_name.spec". The sources are compiled and installed. Then I get "File not found" for each file mentionned in the %files list, but prefixed with /var/tmp/pkg_name/. This directory doesn't even exist on the system and I made no reference to it. Why does this happen ? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
