As you stated, the source is called *RC1 not *rc1, so obviously looking for *rc1 won't find a *RC1 file (or vice versa) no matter what directory you put it in. I suspect you are using %v in the Source: field of your .info file. You need to use "whatever upstream calls the source file" in that field (hardcode the version-string with "RC", for example) rather than relying on default if default doesn't match. dan -- Daniel Macks dma...@netspace.org http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
