You only need to add the --define 'nobuild_gconsole 1' to the working recipe you had in the previous thread last month: $ rpmbuild --rebuild \ --define 'build_fc3 1' \ --define 'build_mysql 1' \ --define 'nobuild_gconsole 1' \ bacula-1.38.6-1.src.rpm > Now i have another problem can't create transaction lock what is all that about? permission problems? should i build as root? > > [king@shoemasters i386]$ ls > bacula-client-1.38.6-1.i386.rpm bacula-sqlite-1.38.6-1.i386.rpm > bacula-debuginfo-1.38.6-1.i386.rpm bacula-updatedb-1.38.6-1.i386.rpm > bacula-mtx-1.38.6-1.i386.rpm > [king@shoemasters i386]$ rpm -i bacula-client-1.38.6-1.i386.rpm > error: can't create transaction lock > [king@shoemasters i386]$ rpm -i bacula-client-1.38.6-1.i386.rpm > error: can't create transaction lock > [king@shoemasters i386]$ rpm -i bacula-sqlite-1.38.6-1.i386.rpm > error: can't create transaction lock You build the package as a regular user but you must install it as root.
