==========
There should be very little change from 10.0 to 10.1 Russ. Just make the changes you want, if anything is wrong, the compile will let you know. Drop your spec file in /usr/src/packages/SPECS/ and your source file, tar file into /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/.
Run, from a shell as root, the command: rpmbuild -ba --target i686 /usr/src/packages/SPECS/<name of spec file>
That will build both your src.rpm and optimized i686 rpm. You'll see at end of your compile where the files are put, so you can install them and/or save them.
If all is well with your system, you should get a couple of files to use.
regards, Lee Lee ran above. Initially got an error on line three of spec file, did not like

Fixed that and it ran until I got the following error near end: make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/packages/BUILD/gutenprint-5.0.0' + cd /var/tmp/build-root-gutenprint + find . -type d -fprint /usr/src/packages/BUILD/file.list.gutenprint.dirs + find . -type f -fprint /usr/src/packages/BUILD/file.list.gutenprint.files.tmp /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.86308: line 29: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.86308 (%install) RPM build errors: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.86308 (%install) I assume its talking about line 29 of the spec. This is part of the description. i see nothing different on that line than the ones above. Any Ideas Sorry about sending copy direct to you but I appear to have a problem with my posts on this list. I made a change my ISP suggested, see if it works. --- Russ
