Re: [liquidwar-user] Problem with source RPM

[Doug Laidlaw]

Sorry.  Too much detail.

The allegro problem is fixed.  Forget it.

When I run "rpm --rebuild" on the SRPM,  I get a message that the man 
6.tar.gz files can't be found in the /tmp directory (I have forgotten the 
full path.)  The files are there, but they are .bz2 files, not .tar.gz files. 
 I was wondering if the files had been updated to .bz2, but the command to 
unpack them had not been changed.

I have since installed liquidwar-5.5.3.tar.gz, with no problems, and no error 
messages.

Regards,

Doug.
