Subject: Re: [newbie] NVidia RPMs for LM 8.1
OK... I think I just learned something about RPM...
Do I understand Mr. Slooten correctly? By using RPM with a --rebuild
option on a SRC.RPM, you'll create a binary build of the SRC RPM??
Hmmm... At the console, rpm --help doesn't even list --rebuild (of
course,
it lists --rebuilddb but that's different). Yet, if I enter rpm
--rebuild
(with no package mentioned) I receive the message:
rpmb: no packages files given for rebuild
This seems to imply that the --rebuild option does, indeed exist.
So... will this create a binary build RPM from a SRC RPM??
Thanks,
Rick
