Quick follow up. I decided to do an install from source code (the
tarball) and discovered another missing package -- libtool. Too bad the
error from the rpmbuild process (RPM or other process issue) wasn't more
helpful. I should have guessed it was somewhere else as the
${BUILD}/config directory had several broken soft links, i.e. nothing at
the other end.
Anyway after installing libtool the package builds.
Maybe this will help someone else along the way to enlightenment. :-)
