Hi Carols, It seems that the SPEC file (of older version) does some patching to > the sources, you can edit the SPEC file and comment it out or delete > the patch part, in the end you are better of customizing the SPEC file > for your needs and system. > > If you need more help I could look the spec file and do some RPM > building, I have a CentOS 5 machine myself. By now, I have already built havp SRPM and RPM out of tarabll. I had to include a patch . Then, it worked. Anyway, This is my first time to built and SRPM and RPM out of a tarball. SO I am new to this. So , I am sending my havp.spec file for you to look at. pls see below. [root at worldnet ~]# cat /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/havp.spec # $Id$ # Authority: dag # Tag: test Summary: HTTP anti-virus proxy filter Name: havp Version: 0.86 Release: 1 License: GPL Group: System Environment/Daemons URL: http://www.server-side.de/ Source: http://www.server-side.de/download/havp-%{version}.tar.gz<http://www.server-side.de/download/havp-%25%7Bversion%7D.tar.gz> Patch0: havp-init.patch BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root #BuildRequires: httpd-devel, bzip2-devel, gmp-devel, curl-devel, clamav-devel, openssl-devel BuildRequires: bzip2-devel, gmp-devel, curl-devel, clamav-devel, openssl-devel %description HAVP (HTTP AntiVirus proxy) is a proxy with an anti-virus filter. It does not cache or filter content. At the moment the complete traffic is scanned. The reason for this is the chance of malicious code in nearly every filetype e.g. HTML (JavaScript) or Jpeg. I aim to stop especially dialer or browser exploits. But writing a http Anti Virus Proxy is a real dilemma! Huge downloads are a problem for virus scanning proxies. A Client should not receive data which is unchecked by the virus scanner, but big downloads should not timeout. %prep %setup %patch0 -p0 -b .init %{__perl} -pi.orig \ -e 's|^# (TEMPLATEPATH) .+$|$1 /etc/havp/templates/en|;' \ -e 's|^# (WHITELIST) .+$|$1 /etc/havp/whitelist|;' \ -e 's|^# (BLACKLIST) .+$|$1 /etc/havp/blacklist|;' \ etc/havp/havp.config %build %configure \ --enable-ssl-tunnel %{__make} %{?_smp_mflags} %install %{__rm} -rf %{buildroot} %{__install} -Dp -m0755 havp/havp %{buildroot}%{_sbindir}/havp %{__install} -Dp -m0755 etc/init.d/havp %{buildroot}%{_initrddir}/havp %{__install} -d -m0755 %{buildroot}%{_sysconfdir}/havp/ %{__cp} -r etc/havp/* %{buildroot}%{_sysconfdir}/havp/ %{__install} -d -m0755 %{buildroot}%{_localstatedir}/log/havp/ %{__install} -d -m0755 %{buildroot}%{_localstatedir}/run/havp/ %clean %{__rm} -rf %{buildroot} %pre if ! /usr/bin/id havp &>/dev/null; then /usr/sbin/useradd -r -d %{_localstatedir}/log/havp -s /bin/sh -c "havp" havp || \ %logmsg "Unexpected error adding user \"havp\".

Pls edit the above file in a nice manner, if needed. And, I would also like to know why I had to use rpmbuild -ba option instead of rpmbuild -ta, while building this out of a tarball. Hope to hear from you.
