RE: '--target' not working

["Kevin Ford" <klford gate net>]

Ian;

Basically.. what did you tweak??  The scr.rpm for the kernel has specific
builds for certain items to only build as i386.

First try building the kernel for i386 platform first. This will check to
see if your tweaking broke anything.
I386 build:    rpm -ba -target i386 SPECS/kernel-2.2.spec
(assumes building from /usr/src/redhat .. -ba only builds the binary, since
you already have the source)

If this works then try:   rpm -ba -target i386,i686 SPECS/kernel-2.2.spec
(assumes building from /usr/src/redhat)

This will give you i386 rpm's for certain packages and i686 rpm's for the
kernel.

This is really weird.  I've tweaked Red Hat's kernel SRPM, and I'm
trying to rebuild it for my Pentium II system:

[root@localhost SPECS]# rpm -bb --target i686 kernel-2.2.spec
Building target platforms: --
Building for target --
File is not a regular file: /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/i686

I've tried replacing the "i686" with "i686-linux" and
"i686-unknown-linux" with basically the same result.

Any ideas?  (This is RPM 4.0 as shipped with Red Hat 7.)

Thanks!
