Thanks Woody! That's cool as hell. I've often wondered about this but never chased it down. I've got a question for you, about a situation that I have right now. I have a source src.rpm that's been installed with rpm -ivh (which dumped the contents of the src.rpm in /usr/src/RPM/SOURCES) and I

On all previous verisons of mdk i've used from 7.0 on I've built src rpms(rpm --rebuild) and they always came out i686. Now on 8.2 they end up i586. I run my own vanilla kernels (like I always have b4) that are built as march=i686. How can I get rpm --rebuild to pop out i686 rpms? -- Chad Young
