Hi, when I started with my own spec files many years ago I always used lines like install -o mysql -g mysql -m 700 blabla $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/... and I'm pretty sure that the file blabla belonged to mysql:mysql after installation of the rpm, although it was not mentioned in %files with any attr. Actually, we always collect the list of files with a find command and use "%files -f files.list", so attr/defattr is never used. With a new RPM I wrote recently I used install lines with owner and group like above, but all files belong to root:root after installation and I couldn't find any way to change that except using attr/defattr in %files. Has this behaviour changed at some time in the past? Or is my remembrance just wrong? cu, Frank -- Dipl.-Inform. Frank Steiner Web: http://www.bio.ifi.lmu.de/~steiner/ Lehrstuhl f.
