No - the initial build should be as it is straight out of svn of the tarballs to prove the process works - then, as you add you own patches if the rpmbuild process fails you know its to do with your changes > > And if so you will need to apply those manually (untar ndoutils, run > make) then rebuild opsview-base to ensure they are included ? This method of rpmbuild is how we build the rpm's we release - all patches are applied and binaries built using them > > To choose a specific example to perhaps make things clearer - would an > initial rpmbuild of opsview-base include the > patches/ndoutils_truncate_tables.patch ? yes I'll reword the wiki page slightly to make this clearer Duncs -- Duncan Ferguson Senior Developer
