Version tag in rpm spec file doesn't allow '-', so use '_' to fix the rpm
build.

Without this patch rpmbuild complains about unpackaged kdump and kexec_test
files.

This patch adds rpm spec file to the "make dist-clean" target and also removes
a wrong comment.

Since current mechanism for building rpm into custom directory is not working,
remove it and switch to system defaults for rpmbuild.

Does RPM really bit rot that quickly?

I know at the time I added the code it was the only way I could
get rpm to build an rpm without being root.  Something that seems
desirable.

It works here on openSUSE 11.1 when I change

-RPMDIR=rpm
+RPMDIR=$(shell pwd)/rpm

Of course only after applying the other patches...

I can build rpm on ubuntu 9.10 as a normal user without having this
custom "rpm" directory.

> +RPMDIR=$(shell pwd)/rpm

On Ubuntu 9.10 when I removed RPMDIR stuff, rpmbuild command takes
system defaults and builds rpm in $HOME/rpmbuild directory.

Cheers,
Ameya.

That seems reasonable to me, care to make it a proper patch?

Since 529ad47e356a8e68be9cde771af8e909a784c3fc has been applied which
removes that code, this is no longer possible. ;)

However, I'm fine with that change. The user can always create a custom
~/.rpmmacros like

  %_topdir /home/bwalle/src/packages

to build the RPM in a local tree.

Bernhard

Ok, that seems reasonable to me too.

Hi all!
I have a mpc8641 hpcn board which i want to run kexec on and also do some research on software restart.
I think kexec is an excellent idea for embedded systems where you want to have quick restarts, but currently I can only see ppc gamecube support.

Somewhere i saw that Benjamin Herrenschmidt had plans, but it was a rather old message. Have anyone done any work with this for powerpc?
Otherwise i intend do start some work to port it to the powerpc platform(if possible).
I guess that the powerpc usage of device tree instead of the "blob" might be the biggest issue?

Is this the correct place for these discussions?
