I'm sending this personally and to the list. Again I can't keep up with the list, so if Brett or anyone else has further advice or questions, please contact me directly. > > By the way, the last line in that README file says that if this is all > > too complicated then install the source RPM.

The rpm --rebuild command's assumed arch of i486 was fine with me, the problem is the assumed cpu of i686. Any chance that the rpm --rebuild command's arch-vendor-os might really mean cpu-vendor-os? Nah, I guess you would have said so if it were. > rpmbuild --target=i586 --rebuild modutils-*.src.rpm Oh, it doesn't need --target=i586-intel-linux :-? (By the way, the reason I come up with snarky questions like this one is that I RTFM.
