Hello,
I need to patch  xorg-x11-server-1.1.1-48.76.el5_5.2.src.rpm for a mouse bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=492129
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=529717


As a first step I have tried building the above src.rpm on SL5.5 by (all as
root) installing the src.rpm then:

# cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
# rpmbuild -ba xorg-x11-server.spec

I seem to hit a autoreconfig error.

Any hints?? Am I doing something obviously stupid in trying to rebuild this on
SL5.5?

(I will probably add more info on Monday as I know this is sketchy but I'm
sure anyone who has encountered this problem will recognise what I am describing!)

Have a good weekend.

Alex Owen
