From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.8) Gecko/20020204 Description of problem: I downloaded lynx-2.8.4-17.src.rpm (from 7.2 distro) and tried to build it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.8.4-17 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpm --rebuild lynx-2.8.4-17.src.rpm 2. 3.

We don't support rebuilding 7.x packages on 6.x. They sometimes use features 6.x didn't support (rpm extensions, presence of a sane compiler, etc). (And this isn't likely to be a missing buildrequires: line in the spec file, looks more like an improperly generated makefile. Something seems to be calling a locale name as a command).
I have rpm 4.0.3 installed on this system. I have automake-1.4-4 and make-3.77-6 installed. Should I upgrade those?
