RE: Binary RPM naming | doubt

["Lis Maria Thomas" <lthomas2 sapient com>]

Hi

I need some more help please.

As u said in your previous mail, I tried to run rpmbuild command in the
following ways


1) rpmbuild -ba yyy.spec --define "_build_name_fmt
%_arch/xxx-%{version}-%{release}.%_arch.rpm"

2) rpmbuild -ba yyy.spec --define "_build_name_fmt
%{ARCH}/lis-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}.rpm"
 

In both the cases, I am getting the error as

error: Could not generate output filename for package zzz: unknown tag

Note: zzz is the value of the name tag in the spec file


Regards

Lis

Note also that it isn't creating the i386 rpms under a i386
subdirectory.

The default _build_name_fmt is
%{ARCH}/%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}.rpm

Try changing your define to something like:
%{ARCH}/thenameiwant-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}.rpm
