It depends on the rpmbuild options. If you use --rpmbuild (as the install scripts and qtp-newmodel do) they are removed. They are not removed with the -b? options. ;) 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.

[qmailtoaster] No simscan-toaster.spec file
Hi Guys, Does anyone know where the file simscan-toaster.spec is kept? I've looked in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/ but it's not there. As far as I know the src install for simscan-toaster-1.3.1 went OK. I need the file, so I can edit it before building the RPM, so as to be albe to get Spamassassin to lookup user prefs in an SQL table. Thanks, Rob
