I then did 'rpmbuild -bc ...' as below. It was working until gpg had a segfault. From some of the emails I have been reading this is a known problem that has not been fixed yet. Other emails I have read indicated that signmodule should be set to 0. What is the down side risk of doing this? Thanks for all your input. I know that this will get solved. If fact, depending on your answer to the signmodule question, resolution may be at hand.
