you're right, you must have rpmbuild installed according to epm's configure.in: if test "x$RPMBUILD" != x; then AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(EPM_RPMBUILD, "$RPMBUILD") AC_DEFINE(EPM_RPMTOPDIR) else if test "x$RPM" != x; then AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(EPM_RPMBUILD, "$RPM") else AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(EPM_RPMBUILD, "rpm") fi fi yesterday I was trying to debug epm to see how it works, just in case anyone tries this, --enable-debug is useless because binaries are stripped when installed, you have to hack Makefile.am and remove all the lines invoking $(STRIP).
