My .spec file looks like this for configure:
CFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS -fno-builtin-strcasecmp"
%configure \
--sysconfdir=%{_sysconfdir}/nmh \
--libdir=%{_libexecdir}/nmh \
--with-locking=fcntl \
--enable-pop
That translates into this in my build log file:
+ CONFIGURE_XPATH='--x-includes=/usr/local/include --x-libraries=/usr/local/lib'
+ ./configure i586-mandriva-linux-gnu --program-prefix= --prefix=/usr/local
--exec-prefix=/usr/local --bindir=/usr/local/bin --sbindir=/usr/local/sbin
--sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc/nmh --datadir=/usr/local/share
--includedir=/usr/local/include --libdir=/usr/local/lib
--libexecdir=/usr/local/libexec --localstatedir=/usr/local/var
--sharedstatedir=/usr/local/com --mandir=/usr/local/share/man
--infodir=/usr/local/share/info --x-includes=/usr/local/include
--x-libraries=/usr/local/lib --sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc/nmh/nmh
--libdir=/usr/local/libexec/nmh --with-locking=fcntl --enable-pop

Later in the make install step I see this:
if test x != x; then \
chgrp mail
/var/tmp/rpm/nmh-1.5-4kc_0tek_RC2_mdv2007.0-buildroot-/usr/local/bin/inc && \
chmod 2755
/var/tmp/rpm/nmh-1.5-4kc_0tek_RC2_mdv2007.0-buildroot-/usr/local/bin/inc; \
fi

I think I specified that with "--with-locking=fcntl" in the
configure step.

I started with a Fedora src.rpm, which contains this line right
after the make install.
chmod g-s $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_bindir}/inc
That's what I was referring to

Maybe that too.

Yes. I looked at that. It's about the same as the Fedora src.rpm's
spec file. Neither is far from my own spec file, which is just a
salted version of the Fedora spec file.

I'll follow your lead and do that as well.
Thanks....
