You you *can't* add a hack like this. What does this have to do with rpm? This is not a hack. This is how you configure rpm. >Why not call rpm with that var set to unxlngi4.pro/whatever and create BUILD >etc, there? (see obrs somment about $(MISC)) Did you read my comment? |So either: |configure rpm properly (using ~/.rpmmacros file) |pass --define "_builddir some/unxlngidir" to rpm (as already the case with _rpmdir) > And wrt your system stuff, comment, you completely miss the point.

I.e. link to the libs you already have, use the epm you already > have, etc. Exactly. It uses the rpm you already have. If you did not configure it properly, it is not the fault of the specfile. The spec does /not/ contain: "use /usr/src/rpm/BUILD" - it uses the builddir as defined in your rpm-configuration (rpm --showrc will tell you the current values) It will use whatever you tell it to use. Everyone who ever has sucessfully built a rpm before will be able to build the freedesktop-rpm with exactly the same account. (Emphasis on "build" - not "package files from the disk into a rpm") > And no, I don't consider Debian's rpm env broken, sorry. OOo should be fixed. It is not only debian's rpm. It is a general "error" of rpm to have the topdir default to /usr/something. It is the configuration that is broken. You cannot build any rpm with your environment. (again: "build", that involves %setup and %build). If you cannot build other rpms, you won't be able to build the freedesktop rpm. Note that the apporach with the redhat and other specs is not the way rpms are built. In fact, the other specs don't "build" anything they only list files to include in the rpm. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
