In the past (while JDS/Linux existed) it was important to have both Linux (aka base) and Solaris spec files. It's not important anymore and it doesn't always make sense either. However, if you build 2 variants of the same module, e.g. 32-bit and 64-bit, or if you combine multiple modules into one package, it's easier to use base specs. Laca
