Here is my .rpmmacros file to be able to build

Thanks!
You need also to setup the %_topdir directory. Do
following as user you
want to build the rpms:
mkdir -p $_topdir $_tmppath
mkdir $_topdir/{BUILD,RPMS,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS}
mkdir $_topdir/RPMS/{i386,i486,i586,i686,noarch,athlon}
That should be all.
Done, works like a charm, but I keep getting the same failure.
Did you upgraded
your box to RHL 9 or have you done a fresh install?
Mine is a fresh install.
The only thing i can imagine is that you have something different in
/usr/lib/rpm/. You can check that with:
(for i in /usr/lib/rpm/*; do rpm -qf $i; done) | sort | uniq
I get following output:
redhat-rpm-config-8.0.21-1
rpm-4.2-0.69
rpm-build-4.2-0.69
rpm-devel-4.2-0.69
By appending a " | xargs rpm -V" to the above command you can check if
files from the above rpms are unmodified. No output is good (that's what
i'm getting).
If you
can't build mingw as user too i can put the rpm (compiled for
i386 or i686, i don't mind) on my
people.redhat.com page.
Yes, I'll take you up on the offer, for the mingw-3.0-1.src.rpm
package, if you can.
