Ah, whoops, forgot about that. A select few packages get built i686 as well as i386, with the i686 build being preferred on capable systems -- those packages are glibc, openssl and the kernel, I believe. So just: $ rpmbuild -bb --target i686 glibc.spec (or rpmbuild --rebuild --target i686 glibc-*.src.rpm) -- Jarod Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
