Re: buildinstall fails

Ah - it looks as if the bug I just found in the CentOS 5.1 version of anaconda is still present here.  If you have a CDPATH set and run buildinstall using a relative root path, DIR will end up with two lines.  It doesn't look as bad here as in the old version (where DIR immediately got deleted!), but I would recommend
