Hello Sanjoy, I've never had such a problem, but my rpm versions are much older... What happens, if you do cd /tmp wget http://pmrb.free.fr/texlive/texlive.nosrc.rpm rpmbuild --rebuild --force /tmp/texlive.nosrc.rpm ? Or yet another possibility: cd /tmp wget http://pmrb.free.fr/texlive/texlive.nosrc.rpm rpm -i /tmp/texlive.nosrc.rpm rpmbuild -bb --force /usr/src/packages/SPECS/texlive.spec > It seems it's a real rpm bug: > <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=227333> (As suggested on this page, I renamed the texlive.spm to texlive.nosrc.rpm) Cheers, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/ _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
