Error Failed To Rename /usr/src/redhat/specs
package Date: Wed, 12 Mar 2003 06:15:01 -0800 (PST) ooooops ! I was miss that you download TARBALL from the internet. Tarball may be a source for the rpm building but ONLY if it has spec file inside. I guess that tarball which you download has not a spec file inside, so you need write your own. You can read about this in the Maximum RPM http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm/ Valery --- Stephen Liu
