No %files section?

Can you post the output of the "rpmbuild -ba" command?

  

I definitely  have quite a few files defined in the %files section(s).

As far as the output from rpmbuild -ba goes, the output is very extensive, and it takes about 40 mins to run on my build host.  I just ran an rpmbuild -bb with the following results (only last screen full here):

make[1]: Leaving directory `/users/home/jm1/redhat/BUILD/openldap-2.4.7/doc'

+ exit 0
Executing(%install): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.34630
+ umask 022
+ cd /users/home/jm1/redhat/BUILD
+ cd openldap-2.4.7
+ rm -Rf /users/home/jm1/redhat/BUILD/openldap-2.4.7-build
+ mkdir -p /users/home/jm1/redhat/BUILD/openldap-2.4.7-build

Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files /users/home/jm1/redhat/BUILD/openldap-2.4.7-build

real    45m11.074s
user    1m55.015s
sys     14m29.501s

So it looks like it exits just after checking for unpackaged files.  Also, the tmp file (/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.34630) is missing, so I would expect that it finished without errors.

I dont have anything too far from stock in my .rpmmacros or anything, just the following:

    %_topdir        /users/home/jm1/redhat

TIA,
Josh
