yes using -nodeps is not a good idea at all. there is nothing wrong with the rpm build process, during the build rpm figures out what the program needs to run, and make those 'requires' for that binary rpm installation. the most i can think of, is to try and see if those libraries are installed on the machine you are building the rpms on, see what packages they belong to, and install those packages elsewhere, where your program is going to be installed. on the build machine: slocate libasn1code.so slocate libosstoed.so if you get any output, check the packages they belong to by using, rpm -qf </path/to/the/library> On Fri, 2007-06-08 at 19:30 +0000, tony.chamberlain@xxxxxxxxx wrote: > I am writing some RPMS.
