I was able to build the spec you sent me without any problem.
[me@boxen ~]$ rpmbuild -ba rpm.spec
Processing files: Product-3.2.2-1.i386

+ exit 0
I'd try just re-typing the first few lines of the file fresh and seeing if
that helps, because whatever you cleaned out to send it to the list seems
to have included your issue.

Hi Greg,
Thanks for the reply. I've attached the specs file but have had to scrub it
of any proprietary details. Hopefully this is of some assistance. If there
is more detail needed in the file to diagnose the problem let me know.
I also ran it through dos2unix and the same error occurred.
Thanks,
John

Subject : RPM build errors: Could not generate output filename for package
xxx: unknown tag
Hi all,
I am having some difficulty generating an RPM file for a project that I am
working on. I get the following error:
RPM build errors:
Could not generate output filename for package xxx: unknown tag
when I run rpmbuild. The "tag" it seems to be referring to is the "Name:
xxx" tag in my specs file. What does this error mean? Is this a file
permissions problem? What additional information do you need to work this
out?
Thanks,
John
