Thanks for the reply.
My problem was with find-provides, not with find-requires.
So i set it up for find-provides.
I get the same error (building oaf0-0.6.5 from mdk 8.0)
I get 2 files in /tmp.
In /tmp/fr20094 it says:
[36l>liboaf.so.0
In /tmp/fr20143 it says:
[36l>
I can't make anything of it.
I hope you can.
Could it be that sed is not working correct?
The find-provides uses sed.
I can't seem to build the apt rpm's in contrib, nor the apt rpm's from
connectiva (with rpm4 fixes).
It bails out with sed errors.
Maybe this is non-information, but it's just what comes up in my mind.
Yesterday i removed and installed the sed rpm, but no difference.
