Actually all you need these days is to install atrpms-rpm-config. This will provide all that may be neccessary. The most prominent part of the environment is to support multiple kernels, not mulitple distros. Of course using distro-neutral macros helps keeping the same specfile/src.rpm across the distros. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
