Latest source files build to i586 on FC11
Submitted by Anonymous (not registered) on Thu, 2009-08-20 04:27.

For FC11 I downloaded the latest source files and found that they built to $HOME/rpm/RPMS/i586 rather than $HOME/rpm/RPMS/i386. I only diuscovered this when I tried to build courier-imap and it could not write the .rpm to the $HOME/rpm/RPMS/i586 folder as it had been created by sudo (root).

A quick chown and chgrp fixed it.

I presume that it would not have been a problem if I had created the $HOME/rpm/RPMS/i586 directory at the start of Step 4 above instead of $HOME/rpm/RPMS/i386.
