Obviously, the RPM did *not* construct all of that. Solution: either=20 construct it yourself, or don't use that RPM (preferably, both).
Actually, using RPM is a great way to control versioning.
The way I do it (on Fedora) is to build my own RPMs from the source package. This requires the rpm-build package to be installed.
All you do is:
# rpmbuild --rebuild bincimap-1.2.10final-1.src.rpm
This creates /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/bincimap-1.2.10final-1.i386.rpm which you can install with:
# rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/bincimap-1.2.10final-1.i386.rpm
Show me a better way.
