I'm just guessing without looking at the spec file, but it sounds like something I've run into before...
RedHat has macros that automatically take any man files and compress them to .gz files. Then in the %files section, you just refer to the .gz files. Sounds like maybe Mandrake doesn't do this. Try referring to the man files in the %files section as: usr/man/man1/python2.3.1 rather than: usr/man/man1/python2.3.1.gz no idea on the .cvsignore without breaking into the archive ;) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robin Lynn Frank" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 10, 2004 3:36 PM Subject: Re: TMDA 1.1.1 "Balblair" is released > On Tuesday 10 February 2004 14:01, Jason R.
