Use the rpmsign command instead! make: *** [Makefile:971: rpm] Error 1 Maybe just remove the --sign? But then, with the rename, you'll get: rpmbuild -ts elfutils-0.187.tar.bz2 error: Found more than one spec file in elfutils-0.187.tar.bz2 make: *** [Makefile:971: rpm] Error 1 So maybe we just should rename them to .specfile? That is what the attached patch does, plus some other cleanups. - We forgot to include the hello3.specfile - Remove the --sign from rpmbuild - escape the % in spec comments That makes make rpm work out of the box without warnings. Does it also help the windows git thing? Cheers, Mark
