Create the symlink in your %install section and reference it in your %files section. Getting the links right requires some careful thinking though. %install ln -s foo.so.1 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/local/foo.so %files /usr/local/foo.so.1 /usr/local/foo.so Result: /usr/local: foo.so -> foo.so.1 Regarding your other issues, I think if you read what we all sent you privately earlier, you will understand that you've misunderstood rpm completely, especially what %install means. You're better off just writing a script, because that's what you're using your specfile for right now. -- Fridh _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
