It is enough to change the version in the spec file and change the source file then rebuild the package.

I didn't keep a compiled version.
On SUSE 9.0 is enough to rpm -vhi rdesktop-1.3.0-162.src.rpm cd /usr/src/package/SPECS rpmbuild -ba *.spec --target [chose one*]

Thank you, Ivan. I was able to build both rpms and install rdesktop 1.3 and tsclient 0.132 on my SuSE9/i686. Two questions: 1) Would this also be possible using YaST->Install and remove software? 2) However, on the Sun Java Desktop System (SJDS based on SuSE8) I wasn't able to use rpmbuild (: command not found). According to the SuSE9 Admin Guide, rpmbuild was new with version 4 of the RPM package manager. How are the earlier commands for building correspondingly rpms on SJDS/SuSE8? Terje J. Hanssen
