DANGER: as far as i can remeber rpm -ba (build all) might also do an install on newer rpms the installation might be not in root but if it is the old ssh is overwritten.
Wow, and they say most drugs don't affect the memory. Unless you have an extremely non standard version of RPM (hint: you do not) rpm -ba builds source and nbinary rpm's, which are simply dropped into /usr/src/suse/RPMS/ whatever. You have to install them yourself.
Careful Kurt, that's not correct. Depending on how the spec file is written, a full install is executed. Not doing this full install can make building the binary rpm rather difficult at times. Of course, not running rpm -ba as root is always a very good idea. Volker
