It is the latest version. There is a problem with the spec file in the src.rpm and I don't know how to operate on the spec file within the srpm.
I need to change "Copyright = LGPL" to "License = LGPL". Apparently the old syntax is not accepted any longer.
I can change the spec file in the /usr/src/packages/SPECS directory and use rpmbuild -bb but that throws up another error, which I do not get when compiling directly from sources. So I think I really must use the srpm directly.
Can you tell me how to operate directly on the spec file within the srpm? Or how can I decompress the RPM, change the spec file, and recompress it to a valid srpm?
I just built the rpm by installing the spec file, changing "copyright" to "license" and then doing rpmbuild -bb on the spec file It might help if you tell us what the error you get is -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
