In regard to: Re: RPM Development as non-root, Michael Dengler said (at...:
Michael, OK...trying mezzanine as per your instructs... $ make ... + /bin/mkdir -p /var/tmp/mezzanine-buildroot.15952/usr/bin /bin/mkdir: cannot create directory `/var/tmp/mezzanine-buildroot.15952': Permission denied ... when building as non-root. I added a new %_tmppath and %_topdir that points to my home dir to ~/.rpmmacros but alas...no joy. I cannot write to /var/tmp and can't seem to find a place in the mezzanine build to modify the path to point to somewhere I can write to.
Then something is screwed up on the system you're building on. /var/tmp should be writeable by all users. In the meantime, it's probably something related to a buildroot that is selecting /var/tmp. Try doing rpm --showrc | egrep /tmp and rpm --showrc | egrep mezzanine to see if either of them show you what macro might be involved.
