Thank you. the ~/.rpmmacros helped though I got the
warning: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
/usr/share/doc/lame/html/basic.html
/usr/share/doc/lame/html/contributors.html
/usr/share/doc/lame/html/examples.html
/usr/share/doc/lame/html/history.html
/usr/share/doc/lame/html/id3.html
/usr/share/doc/lame/html/index.html
/usr/share/doc/lame/html/lame.css
/usr/share/doc/lame/html/modes.html
/usr/share/doc/lame/html/node6.html
/usr/share/doc/lame/html/switchs.html
But rpms were built.
However to findout the $RPM_BUILD_ROOT, I removed rpms and the file
~/.rpmmacros. Then I did rebuild now I saw spec in /usr/src/RPMS/SPECS. In
that
BuildRoot: %{tmpdir}/%{name}-%{version}-root-%(id -u -n).
I also saw "Using BuildRoot: /%{tmpdir}/lame-3.91-root-root" in the run for
building rpms.
But in /tmp/ I didn't find lame-3.91-root-root.
