Nice, but I like this approach better: groupadd src cd /usr/src/redhat chgrp -R src * chmod -R g+w * find . -type d -exec chmod g+s {} \; Presto, common user build area, usable by any user that is a member of the "src" group. No changes to rpm's setup required. Only downside: You might need to redo the last four steps after updating rpm itself, as it resets the permissions on those directories (at least it used to).
