Forgive the "newbie-ness" to this question, but I'm not quite sure what you mean by the rpm-tmp file; I'm assuming you mean the rpm-temp.45231 shell script that is left in /var/tmp. I tried running that myself from the cmd line using # bash -x rpm-tmp.45231 and it runs properly to completion. If I try running just: # rpmbuild -bi --short-circuit /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/python-2.4.spec it (not surprisingly) exists with the same error message. If I try to run # strace rpmbuild -bi --short-circuit /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/python-2.4.spec I end up with a whole bunch of output I don't understand: ..... + find /var/tmp/python2.4-2.4-root/usr/lib64/python2.4/lib-dynload -type f + sed 's|^/var/tmp/python2.4-2.4-root|/|' + grep -v -e '_tkinter.so$' [{WIFEXITED(s) && WEXITSTATUS(s) == 1}], 0, NULL) = 14779 --- SIGCHLD (Child exited) @ 0 (0) --- write(2, "error: ", 7error: ) = 7 write(2, "Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rp"..., 53Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.156 (%install) ) = 53 write(1, "\n\nRPM build errors:\n", 20 RPM build errors: ) = 20 write(2, " Bad exit status from /var/tm"..., 57 Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.156 (%install) ) = 57 open("/usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc", O_RDONLY) = 3 fcntl(3, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=11452, ...}) = 0 mmap(NULL, 8192, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x2a983ac000 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN, revents=POLLIN}], 1, 1000) = 1 read(3, "#/*! \\page config_rpmrc Default "..., 8192) = 8192 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN, revents=POLLIN}], 1, 1000) = 1 read(3, "t: armv4l: armv3l\narch_compat: a"..., 8192) = 3260 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN, revents=POLLIN}], 1, 1000) = 1 ..... > If it's indeed the case that the shell crashes, something > is seriously wrong with your operating system. I would be surprised if it was something wrong with the OS at is a brand spanking new install. In fact, I installed it specifically in order to build python2.4 on RHEL4 x64 so I can then install the rpm pkg on my production x64 server (I only managed to find precompiled i386 binaries for RHEL4). Is it possible I'm missing some libraries somewhere? I don't know if there is any way I can complete the rpm build manually? I've looked at the SPEC file, but don't see anything particularly special in there, nor am I sure how I can modify this rpm-tmp script that it runs to skip that line and see if it can continue without it. (Am not very well versed with building srpms). Any ideas what I can do/try next? Thanks, Eric
