Don't you use mock? I do - however I couldn't get it to install the kernel SRPM I produced with an rpmbuild -bs kernel-xen.spec. When I tried to build using the epel-5-x86_64 target, it wouldn't even get past installing the SRPM. I had to transfer ~/rpmbuild to an EL5.8 machine, build the SRPM there. Not quite sure why that compatibility issue exists, but so far I've been building the initial SRPM on a 5.8 system. Any hints here also would be greatly appreciated! > > In SL6 (not SL5) macros.dist is provided by the sl-release package. > Yeah, I saw that.
