Thanks for all the advice. I understand what's happening but it's a real pain to work around it. I'm obviously going to have to add additional steps into my processes. As is pretty obvious, I install to /usr/local/bin et al. Then test. If all is well then do the build. Now I'm going to have to install to /usr/local/bin test and copy to a build directory then build, or install to the build directory, copy to the system directory, test and then build or install to the build directory, build, install from the rpm and test (Ugh).

I have a number of different applications all interconnected and somewhat dependent. I attempted to put everything in a single directory tree, but rpmbuild doesn't like that. If I accept the default tree structure then each time I change version/revision I'll be starting a new tree branch and have to come up with some way to weed out the old branches.

I must say this complicates things a bunch.

Thanks for the help however.

Jim.
