I don't offhand know how to do this, and as far as I can tell, it isn't really necessary to have this line at all. So, unless I'm misunderstanding something (which is certainly possible) the simpler solution is just remove it. Otherwise a big segment of your user base (redhat) will be effectively lost. (I doubt many who would otherwise install an srpm would feel comfortable to fiddle with unpacking it and editing the spec file) _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
