I grabbed the latest ImageMagick.src.rpm (version 6.3.6, I believe) from imagemagic.org and verified that I can compile it by hand on CentOS 3. I then commented out all the BuildPrereq and BuildRequires lines and verified that "rpmbuild -bc ImageMagick.spec" behaved sensibly.
However, when I try to run "rpmbuild -bb ImageMagick.spec" I get a failure not because of any compilation problems but because the PerlMagick got installed relative to the real root directory rather than relative to the temporary build root, so none of those files could be found when the final packaging step was done.
Can anyone give me some quick instructions on how to get those files to install in the correct relative location? My spec file foo is a few years rusty.
