Sorry, I decided to try it on 2.5.21 first. But I can't even get i to compile. So... Here are two attachments. Both are the output of "strace rpm -q strace". The first is from 2.5.20, the second from 2.4.18 ( which works ). I'm nothing close to a hacker, but tell me if anything else would be helpful. jay Dave Jones wrote: > On Sat, Jun 08, 2002 at 02:15:10PM -0400, jay wrote: > > When I try to use rpm to rebuild a src.rpm, it gives a Segmentation > > fault on 2.5.20.
