Here is my .rpmmacros file to be able to build rpms as normal user. You need to adapt the paths: %_topdir /home/mstefani/rpm %_tmppath /home/mstefani/rpm/INSTALL
Thanks!
You need also to setup the %_topdir directory. Do following as user you want to build the rpms: mkdir -p $_topdir $_tmppath mkdir $_topdir/{BUILD,RPMS,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS} mkdir $_topdir/RPMS/{i386,i486,i586,i686,noarch,athlon}
That should be all.
Done, works like a charm, but I keep getting the same failure.
hmm ... strange. My .rpmmacros is no more than what i pasted above and my .rpmrc has only directives to build and optimize every package for athlon. If you can't build mingw as user too i can put the rpm (compiled for i386 or i686, i don't mind) on my people.redhat.com page.
Yes, I'll take you up on the offer, for the mingw-3.0-1.src.rpm package, if you can.
I hope you at least upgrade the box to the latest erratas ;)
Hey, I'm not _that_ lazy! :)
