Phil,
 thank you. That's what i thought and i took a look @
glibc-2.3.4-2.54.src.rpm. I didn't notice any of the functionality you
mentioned, which prompted me to write the email.

another question is :
 do i explicitly add the file.version to the %files section  or just
mention the link ?

Thank you
Andrew
