Thanks Fred.
I've applied your suggested changes, but unfortunately it's still stuck
at the same error. The path (as reflected by the error message) was updated:
Processing files: rivendell-2.19.0int01-1.x86_64
error: File not found by glob:
/home/mick/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/rivendell-2.19.0int01-1.x86_64/usr/share/doc/packages/rivendell/*
RPM build errors:
File not found by glob:
/home/mick/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/rivendell-2.19.0int01-1.x86_64/usr/share/doc/packages/rivendell/*
Makefile:952: recipe for target 'rpm' failed
make: *** [rpm] Error 1
It appears that it's the parent 'packages' directory that's missing...
> ls -1
~/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/rivendell-2.19.0int01-1.x86_64/usr/share/doc
rivendell
rivendell-importers-2.19.0int01
Where to change that?
I again tried both with/without adding --docdir=/usr/share/doc/packages
to configure. The error messages are identical.
Cheers,
Mick
