Re: Maximum file limit for rpmbuild

[Marty Ridgeway <mridge50 verizon net>]

I found the problem digging around on some older forums. I had the %doc 
line in my %files section. I removed it and problem solved. I removed 
the check_files line from my spec file and it still works.

Thanks for the help and ideas.
