Jeff-
Here's how I got the .spec file (sort of):

svn export http://svn.slimdevices.com/repos/slim/branches/BRANCH_6_3_x

Now, ./BRANCH_6_3_x/platforms/redhat/slimserver.spec.build
is the precursor to the .spec file that is built by the perl script 
BRANCH_6_3_x/makrelease.pl. It looks like all the perl script does to
this file is make some substitutions.

perl ./makerelease.pl fails on FC5 because of the use of the
'Copyright' keyword instead of 'License'. I changed this using a text
editor, and then it built my rpm fine. At first glance late last night,
it appeared that makerelease.pl could be easily altered to also build an
SRPM, which I'd prefer to all this.

I don't have time this morning to futz with fixing the
/usr/local/slimserver directory wart that I'd mentioned in my other
post, but maybe I will Sunday if you haven't already done so.

HTH. Please share your progress with me...
