May require submitting a bug.
Building a RPM package from a tarball will quite often include stuff
that's already installed, e.g:- I have to give checkinstall options such as
--exclude
/lib64/,/usr/bin/gcc,/usr/lib64/gcc/,/lib64/crti.o,/lib64/crtn.o and
others when I discover with "rpm -qpl xxxx.rpm" that they are included
in the package.
Has anyone else noticed this as it has been so for a very long time.
Noting that every problem I have posted to this list in recent months
has been met with silence, suggesting that most people install the
distro and simply run with it as is - see if my luck changes this time.
Packages such as jack are still at 0.109 while the latest 0.116.2 is
needed for certain apps like dttsp to work correctly.
Regards
Sid.
