Post back if you have questions on that part. If you haven't got better links, there's a draft on the fedoraproject.org wiki for building packages: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/BuildingPackagesGuide I can't say I've followed it to learn to package (since it was created long after I'd struggled to learn to build rpms :), but it does seem to cover many of the things you'll need to know. > It would be nice to find out a definitive answer on ac_nonexitent.h > though. Seeing many, many posts on this error with no definitive > answer is an issue. What list/forum would be a good place to ask? I looked harder and this is definitely an autoconf test. The purpose it to determine whether the preprocessor can detect missing headers. You can find it in /usr/share/autoconf/autoconf/c.m4: # OK, works on sane cases. Now check whether nonexistent headers # can be detected and how. _AC_PREPROC_IFELSE([AC_LANG_SOURCE([[@%:@include <ac_nonexistent.h>]])], [# Broken: success on invalid input. continue], [# Passes both tests. ac_preproc_ok=: No need to really worry about it. If it shows up in the configure output, perhaps that could be fixed in the upstream configure.ac (or configure.in), but it's not an error that should affect the build AFAICT. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Everyone should know of all information that others have deemed unfit for public knowledge. -- Author Unknown
