Have you installed the rpm-build package? No, I hadn't realized it existed. What was the rational for putting the building stuff in a seperate subpackage? As for this bug rpm should at least give me an error message saying 'install rpm-build'. The rationale is that rpm has far too many options and that most users are not interested in building packages. Again, you're asking for one program to give an error message for another program, /bin/rpm != /usr/bin/rpmbuild. The "fix" when the time comes will be to remove the popt alias magic glue to report a "No such option error". The build modes are in /usr/bin/rpmbuild and they will stay there forever more. This problem appears resolved. At least for rpm-4.0.4, the same goofiness with rpmb vs rpmbuild will continue to exist. |
