i know this isn't probably the best place, but i'm getting
very desparate to get at least one server up and running with
openssh-2.3 here. i have an old redhat-5.2 machine that i
was trying to recompile the 2.3 src rpm on, and after fighting
for hours to get the various -devel rpms that it required, i
have a problem now where the openssh rpm isn't using the older
gnome include directories, which seem to have been in
/opt/gnome/include in the 1.0.xx days.
is there any way to:
a) tell the rpm --rebuild to not build the gnome stuff
b) pass extra include directories to the rpm --rebuild process
c) anything else that can magically get this to work???!!!
any help would be very, very much appreciated at this point...

In RH pine packages, you can do like: rpm --rebuild pine-*.src.rpm --define 'nokerberos 1' The difference is like: %{!?no_x11_askpass:%setup -q -a 1} vs %if ! %{no_x11_askpass} %setup -q -a 1 %else However, the former construct won't work with e.g. SourceX: files. It's just easier to rpm -Uvh *.src.rpm, edit the .spec file and rpm -ba that. -- Pekka Savola "Tell me of difficulties surmounted, Netcore Oy not those you stumble over and fall" Systems. Networks.
