What package is this?
When you make changes in a spec file, it's generally a good idea to
increment the Release number. Make any changes necessary, then rebuild
including a new SRPMS. I usually do this with:
rpm -ba specfile 2>&1 | tee /tmp/rpm.test
This compiles and builds new binary package(s), and a new src.rpm file with
the changed spec file included. It also leaves the complete output of the
build process in /tmp/rpm.test where you can examine it later to see what
happened during the build process. I've been trying to build openldap for
Darwin this evening, and it's been an iterative process. Build, see what's
missing, fix it, then try building again.
