It's worth noting that changing the release tag to -1 or "a" are both problematic. You can't use a dash in the release tag and using alphabet characters makes it much trickier to ensure that a package is newer than previous versions. So to properly answer Patrick's question, much more context and details are going to be needed. -- Todd ~~ The future isn't what it used to be. -- Arthur C.

But I'm going to read your mind and assume that you are trying to build a local package from the source rpm. Then you will have a directory ~/rpmbuild/SPECS. In that directory there will be a spec file for your package.

The link you provide is for doing a system upgrade to F29 for example, that does not seem to fit the question or the subject line. -- Doug H. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
