Finally: echo "%_topdir $HOME/rpm" >> $HOME/.rpmmacros --- Cheers, -Charlie On Mon 20 Aug at 22:59:47 -0700 [EMAIL PROTECTED] done said: > I did this many moons ago, but can't remember exactly what I'd done to > set it up. > > I simply had a regular user account that had its own SPECS, BUILD, RPMS, > SOURCES, and SRPMS directories in it where I could build RPMS without > being root.
