Running rpm install/upgrade on a src.rpm file installs the spec file under SPECS and the source code under SOURCES. > Note, it gets removed when the binary rpm is built. No it doesn't. But it will get *overwritten* if you install/upgrade the src.rpm file again. After you've installed the src.rpm file, and have edited the spec file to your liking you will build the binary rpm from that spec file with a command that is different than what is used to build directly from the src.rpm file. It would be something like: rpmbuild -bb --with $ARCH --target $(uname -m) /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/simscan-toaster.spec Where $ARCH is cnt40, cmdr64, etc. Quinn --------------------------------------------------------------------- Strangecode :: Internet Consultancy http://www.strangecode.com/ +1 530 624 4410 --------------------------------------------------------------------- QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted <http://www.vr.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
