Description Stephen Rasku 2002-04-17 06:23:43 UTC 
Description of Problem:

Source RPMS install into /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES.  The filesystem doesn't
provide this directory or even /usr/src/redhat.  This means that you can't
install SRPMS without manually creating these directories. 
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES should be part of the filesystem.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

filesystem-2.1.6-2

How Reproducible:
