Has anyone been able to successfully build GAIM from the source RPM for 
SuSE 10? Installing the source RPM and performing a rpmbuild -ba 
gaim.spec fails with errors as shown below:

Doing a simple ./configure and make in the RPM build directory works 
fine, but then I do not get a nice RPM to install from. The issue seems 
to have something to do with the prefix definitions in the spec. file 
but I am not quite sure what it is.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance for any help,
