Hi to all.

I'm having a problem with the rpm command on centos 5.5; I am used to recompile a source rpm with the following command:

root@test ~: rpmbuild --rebuild pssh-1.2.2-1.rf.src.rpm Installing pssh-1.2.2-1.rf.src.rpm error: cannot create %sourcedir /home/test/rpm/SOURCES

Just a guess but try creating the %sourcedir above. Most likely you will need other directories as well. You could also use mock but that will need to be setup as well.

Regards,

Thanks , The problem is solved now.

I just run the following commands:

root@test ~: cp -r /usr/src/redhat /home/test/rpm root@test ~: rpmbuild --rebuild pssh-1.2.2-1.rf.src.rpm

Then enter the rpm directory will find the xxx.rpm package, then run "rpm -ivh xx.rpm".
