With the manual changes to the RPM macros, it did build RPMs but the without the ability to autodect dependencies etc. - I did not have elfutils installed. I grabbed the latest elfutils and compiled it and installed it, and doing so broke my tool chain, I was not able to compile anything after that, I suspect it replaced something. The actually happened in configure scripts while testing ability to link. So, wiped that LFS and did it again, have RPM installed again (but same problem - it did not configure for linux) and I'm in the process of bootstrapping it now so that on a second attempt to install elfutils, I can build it as an RPM and hopefully figure out what parts of the toolchain it wants to replace. I'll get there. _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
