Re: [expert] Problem with .rpmmacros / rpm build setup
Maximum RPM is the best book on this out there.. Here is the link to the
online version.
http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm/
If you have an RH disk set or if you feel like downloading from RH it's
also in the documentation section of every release they do.

Ummm, I searched unsuccesfully for docs on those--best thing I can think of is
to rpm -i something.src.rpm from srpms for mandrake and then look at the spec
files others have made. Some of them have really artful dodges and many will
give you clues how to do it.
There is the rpm howto at
http://www.mandrakelinux.com/howtos/mdk-rpm/
which explains a lot of the procedure including the spec file.

Thanks but I got this one already. Now I am trying to fight my way
through the spec file. Know of any place where there are docs on these?

[expert] Problem with .rpmmacros / rpm build setup
Well I got that last bug but now I have another.
This last line in my rpmmacros file is causing trouble:
# Where scripts are found (like find-requires-nonvidia)
%_my_bindir /lclusr/jim/bin
%_my_rpmdir /lclusr/jim/rpm
...
%__find_requires%{_my_bindir}/find-requires-nonvidia %{?buildroot:%{buildroot}}
As far as I can tell there is no "find-requires-nonvidia" anywhere. I
tried scanning the rpm database for such a file and none exists,
installed or otherwise. I also did searches on /usr/lib/rpm which
contains only:
[jim@enigma rpm]$ pwd
/usr/lib/rpm
[jim@enigma rpm]$ ls
athlon-linux@config.sub* get_magic.pl* i686-mandrake-linux/perl.prov*rpmpopt-4.0.4
athlon-mandrake-linux/ convertrpmrc.sh* getpo.sh* javadeps* perl.req* rpmq*
brp-compress*cpanflute* http.req* k6-linux@ rpmb* rpmrc
brp-mandrake*find-lang.sh*i386-linux@ k6-mandrake-linux/ rpmd* rpmt@
brp-sparc64-linux* find-provides* i386-mandrake-linux/ macros rpm.daily*rpmu@
brp-strip* find-provides.perl* i486-linux@ magic.prov* rpmdiff.cgi* rpmv@
brp-strip-comment-note* find-prov.pl*i486-mandrake-linux/ magic.req* rpme@ rpm.xinetd*
brp-strip-shared*find-req.pl* i586-linux@ mkinstalldirs* rpmi* u_pkg.sh*

config.guess*find-requires.perl* i686-linux@ noarch-mandrake-linux@ rpm.log* vpkg-provides.sh*
I also checked the path and I checked several other likely locations in
the file system. No dice. What are the odds that this is out of date?
It might have been deprecated or the file might be going by another
name these days? Like I notice the list of files above includes a
find-requires.perl as well as a find-requires*
