RE: RPMBUILD: Help Required.

["Pitchai, Sundara Rajan" <Sundara Pitchai in unisys com>]

Hi,

I added the line "AutoReqProv: no" in the spec file to override that
error.
I went on with the above move, since I need the gcov generated files in
the source tree.

Here's your problem; I imagine you have a fully built kernel directory, 
including the kernel configuration program used to configure the kernel.

I bet it's the program that depends on libkconfig.

You should run a 'make clean' before you try to copy the source 
directory; this way, you have a clean source directory. The RPM 
auto-dependency machinery then won't find any executables to examine.
