You really shouldn't use --target to build for x86_64, please use the 'build' command instead so that the correct packages get used. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Specifying --target to build makes the current kernel spec file call rpmbuild w/ both --target and --eval's. Reopening and cc'ing Andreas. Maybe this should be fixed in the kernel spec file?

Ah.. I was confused about the target, I'm trying to build i386 kernel on x86_64 machine. Other than the jobs thing, it works pretty well. What do you mean by --debug? --define maybe? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As there's a workaround please feel free to close again but IMHO it would be nice to document it somewhere or at least warn about it on build help message.
