What's the best thing to do here? There is an easy way to do this *for the kernel*, which is do whatever modifications you want, say by using "$ make gconfig" and then to invoke "$ make rpm". Unfortunately, nothing like make rpm seems to be available for most RPMs, which is a bother when you want to modify them. jon -- fedora-list mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
