I am not an expert in rebuilding rpms from src.rpms, but I have done it from
time to time. I am now trying to build rpms for firefox 1.0.2 using the src
rpm from cooker. However the process aborts after about 20 minutes with the
following message:
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.77790: line 96: fg: no job
HI all,
I wanted to see the code for the command used on the shell and the
code for the kernel (fork,and other system calls) but I did not found
them.
Anybody knows where can I found them on my system,
by the way I install the kernel source code from the CD's.
Best Regards,

you have to create a directory
place package.src.rpmin it,
and in a terminl,
cd directory sources
rpm --rebuild package.src.rpm

src.rpms are the raw sources that binary rpms are built from. They are no use

They basically consist of tarballs of all the sources and patches
that are applied, plus a spec file, which is a configuration file
that tells rpm how to build and package the program. If you try to
install one, these files will be copied to
I have a real problem remembering the command line utilities Mandrake has for
configuring X etc. Does anyone know of a list or guide that I could print out to help

Sorry for the COMPELTE newbie-ness here, but is it safe to remove the

E.G. I just downloaded the tarball for Flex and decompressed it into the
directory structure, then went through the configure/make/install process
