Hi all, I think that we don't have such features, avaible in other

'make binrpm-pkg' should already provide the majority of this for

make[1]: *** [binrpm-pkg] Error 1

I didn't try but I'm quite sure that rpm generated in this way cannot be

you. But to do it all properly, you need to build the kernel using
the spec file that is provided to you by the suse kernel engineers.
This is what I'm asking for: a "magic" but simple tool for building an
rpm with a susefied spec file. At least with right "provide" and a call
to mkinitrd and update-bootloader. This is enough for testing or for
build a kernel on host A and then move to another host...

An enhanced version of mkspec should be enough..

The suse way is, IMHO, the worst one..
