You need to tell the system you are building a 32bit target. I believe when you are doing the rpmbuild you need to go '--target i586'. I saw something earlier today that hinted you might need to prefix the whole command with 'setarch i586' so: setarch i586 rpmbuila -ba --target=i586 package.spec I've not tried it this way (althought its much better than the way I've done it), so let me know how it goes. -greg _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
