I've suddenly run into a very odd problem trying to rebuild SRPMs. In
the past I was always able to download foo.src.rpm and run the following
as root without any problems:
rpm --rebuild foo.src.rpm
Today when I attempted to rebuild the ppp SRPM from Caldera's 3.1
workstation (as root):
[root@hal stuff]# rpm --rebuild ppp-2.4.0-7.src.rpm -vv
Installing ppp-2.4.0-7.src.rpm

That last line is the problem. It dies at that point. I tried a
different SRPM and it died with a similar error. The directory
structure /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/ exists. Any ideas?
