Please examine the spec file. > error: line 68: Unknown tag: exit 1 ---- make sure you try both of these methods... rpmbuild --rebuild \ --with \ --define 'fc3 1' \ --define 'build_mysql 1' \ --define 'nobuild_gconsole 1' \ /home/king/rpmbuild/SOURCES/bacula-1.38.6-1.src.rpm or rpmbuild --rebuild \ --define 'fc3 1' \ --define 'build_mysql 1' \ --define 'nobuild_gconsole 1' \ /home/king/rpmbuild/SOURCES/bacula-1.38.6-1.src.rpm one of these should work. If you were to install the source rpm, you would have the spec file and could build it like I normally do but I am not entirely certain how to pass the parameters when you want to rebuild the src rpm with build options...you have all the information you need and you can check 'rpmbuild --usage' to see if you can glean the proper format of the command.
