Thanks. Re: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Puritan Tried the puritan on Debian, stopped at a missing /etc/mock/fedora-9-i386.cfg file, but I thought the build had moved on to Fedora 10 now? Why would it need Fedora 9 configuration file? Where would I get a Fedora 10 configuration file from? Why does the current production build system have this file? Is there a specific mock dependency not called out? -- James Cameron mailto:[email protected] http://quozl.netrek.org/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
