That's why I was trying to give it to you as you'd know right off if/when other options appeared or changed syntax ;) > Is there a more scalable way to do this, perchance? I was trying to make the option-generator into a function which could be called in the %description section or in the %configure line so you'd only need to maintain one area. I haven't figured that out yet (or determined if it were possible) ... if not possible, I'd be willing to hack out the %description flags if you'd accept the other area. Daryl
