Re: Unable to --rebuild postgresql-7.1.2-4PGDG.src.rpm

Trond--

Thanks for the advice. I simple reran the rpm --rebuild command and,
for, some reason, it now works just fine. Very clean compiles for both
normal and --target=i686.

About the only thing different about my system from a purely stock
install of RH7.1 is that I used SGIs XFS installer. Perhaps there was
some lag on a buffere somewhere? My understanding of how XFS interacts
with other systems is dim at best.
