Bernard, Brian, do you know how to resolve this?
--------------------- # make rpm ... ERROR: link target doesn't exist (neither in build root nor in installed system): /usr/share/systemimager/boot/i386/standard/initrd_template/lib/udev/devices/MAKEDEV -> /sbin/MAKEDEV Add the package providing the target to neededforbuild and Requires error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.89135 (%install) RPM build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.89135 (%install) make: *** [rpm] Error 1 --------------------- Obviously the target of the link /sbin/MAKEDEV inside the initrd_template should be the MAKEDEV script inside the initrd_template. In my system I've not the file /sbin/MAKEDEV, but this is not the point... in the initrd_template the file is missing and I suppose it could be required by udev. But since it's introduced by the ubuntu patch and it doesn't seem to be used, maybe we could remove the link via the systemimager rules patch (see the attachement). Cheers, -Andrea
