hi all, dont know if there's something wrong with my system or what, but i can't find "rpmbuild" command ... is it a package separated from rpm? I dont think so cause there's no rpmbuild package in yum .... neither in rpmforge repositories .... the strange thing is that my system has the manuals for it, but the it doesnt have the binary (command itself)....
If have a system with rpmbuild can find out by doing : $ which rpmbuild /usr/bin/rpmbuild
$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/rpmbuild rpm-build-4.3.3-13_nonptl
Alternatively, can get information from yum :
$ yum provides rpmbuild
this will give lots of output -- the line/paragraph in particular you should be interested in :
rpm-build.i386 4.3.3-13_nonptl base Matched from: /usr/bin/rpmbuild /usr/share/man/man8/rpmbuild.8.gz rpmbuild(VendorConfig) = 4.1-1
To install : # yum install rpm-build
