rpmbuild issue

[manju k]

Hello all,
I am using RedHat 6 Beta on intel 64bit system.


When I build my software with rpmbuild command, the rpms are not getting
generated in the directory specified in rpmmacros file(%_rpmdir)

This is what I am doing..
rpmbuild -bb -vv --buildroot <build root path> --target=x86_64 --rcfile 
/tmp/rpmrc /tmp/mySpecfile.spec

# cat /tmp/rpmrc
macrofiles: /tmp/rpmmacros

# cat /tmp/rpmmacros
%_arch {$ARCH}
%_builddir /home/manju/build/mysoftware/temp/install
%_buildshell /bin/sh
%_rpmdir /home/manju/build/mysoftware/dest/ix86_linux24/images/
%_rpmfilename %%{NAME}-%%{VERSION}-%%{RELEASE}.{$ARCH}.rpm
%_tmppath /home/manju/build/mysoftware/install/tmp

So I expect the rpms to be present under the directory specified by %_rpmdir
but instead they are going to /root/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64 directory.How do I 
address this ? Anyone has faced the same problem. Is this a bug ?

Thanks and Regards,
manju
