Normally I recompile source packages with pentiumpro or k6 optimizations taking
them from one of these sites:
- ftp.ciril.fr
- ftp.sunet.se
- sunsite.uio.no

It's about a week that almost all new packages but RPM itself, when I rebuild
using:
rpm --rebuild ...                                on a Dell PII 350 machine or
rpm --rebuild --target=k6-mandrake-linux         on a self build K6III based
                                         machine

give the following message:
source package expected, binary found

My installation was originally a 7.1 (Helium) Kernel 2.2.17-0.5mdk which is the
only package I get from RPMS directory and recompile from the installed source tree
and, currently, I use  rpm-3.0.5-0.9mdk but back-grading to 3.0.4 didn't
resolve.

Could you please tell me where I'm wrong or check for if source packages are
correctly build and transmitted.

Thanks in advance.
