Hello, I am using rpmbuild command version 4.4.2.3 on Linux, with the following syntax rpmbuild -bb --define <defines> --target ppc-linux --buildroot <full path to a temp directory <spec file> The rpmbuild command fails with this message Could not open %files file <file in the %files section>: No such file or directory I did carefully examine the situation and as far as I can tell, the file in question, is present before rpmbuild starts executing. After rpmbuild exits, that file is immediately deleted. Could it possibly happen, that somehow rpmbuild is executing "in the background", as if, returning early, and then still reading the file in %files. Is there any chance of this happening? Thank you, Mark _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
