I assume this is another instance of a problem I've seen repeatedly with RPMs built using the BuildRoot mechanism (i.e. where data is installed into /some/fake/rootdir, packaged, and the fake tree thrown away again). I've seen several RPMs where people were too lazy to patch the Makefiles to make them install to the buildroot directory, and used stuff like "make prefix=/tmp/foobar-1.2.3/usr install". This can have bad side effects, like compiling /tmp/foobar-1.2.3/usr/blabla into your search paths. Don't do that, folks :) Olaf -- Olaf Kirch | --- o --- Nous sommes du soleil we love when we play okirat_private | / | \ sol.dhoop.naytheet.ah kin.ir.samse.qurax okirat_private +-------------------- Why Not?! ----------------------- UNIX, n.: Spanish manufacturer of fire extinguishers.
